The metabolic pathway interrelated with a respiratory substrate has 3 main parts, namely, Glycolysis, Citric acid cycle, and Electron transport chain.
Explanation:
- Glycolysis - In this method, the glucose molecules are slowly broken down into CO2(Carbon dioxide) and O2(Oxygen). They produce energy in the form of Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Glycolysis is an anaerobic pathway.
- The citric acid cycle - It is also known as the Krebs cycle. It takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria. One of the main functions of the Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle is to produce energy, store them, and transport them in the form of ATP or GTP(Guanosine triphosphate). Critic acid cycle is an aerobic pathway.
- Electron transport chain- It is aerobic respiration and produces the most Adenosine triphosphate(ATP). It is the only part of glucose that uses the atmospheric O2.
