Krebs
ETS Energy
Glucose Pyruvic acid
Cytoplasm Mitochondria
Wow! lots Yup, breaking down
of chemical glucose is trickier
reactions... than you thought, eh?
Mitochondria use Oxygen Mitochondria
pyruvic acid and Pyruvic (O2) are busy little
oxygen to create Acid guys, aren't
energy (ATP). they?
This energy production is a
complex process that consists
of many chemical reactions
occurring simultaneously in
different places.
