The process organisms depend on to break down food molecules in the presence of oxygen to generate ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are byproducts of this reaction.

The production of a small amount of ATP in the absence of oxygen.

Electron carriers responsible for capturing electrons and transporting them to the stage(s) of cellular respiration that depend on the chemical potential energy stored within the electrons.

Cellular Respiration

Term	Definition
Cellular respiration	The process organisms depend on to break down food molecules in the presence of oxygen to generate ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are byproducts of this reaction.
Aerobic	Oxygen is required
Anaerobic	Oxygen is not required
Fermentation	The production of a small amount of ATP in the absence of oxygen.
NADH/FADH2	Electron carriers responsible for capturing electrons and transporting them to the stage(s) of cellular respiration that depend on the chemical potential energy stored within the electrons.
