|---|---|
| aerobic cellular respiration | the breakdown of glucose in the presence of O2 |
| reactants: glucose and oxygen products: carbon dioxide, water, ATP | What are the reactants and products of aerobic cellular respiration? |
| 36 ATPs | number of ATPs produced in aerobic cellular respiration |
| Glycolysis Krebs cycle electron transport system | 3 biochemical pathways of aerobic cellular respiration |
| electron transport chain | biochemical pathway of aerobic cellular respiration that yields the most ATPs |
