The oxidative stage, in the presence of oxygen, where larger molecules are broken down into smaller molecules and energy is released. This is true for the Krebs cycle, beta-oxidation of fatty acids, etc. Also, a lot of free radicals are generated inside the mitochondria, which go on to attack biomolecules.

What are the four stage of respiration?

The four stages are : 1) Glycolysis 2) Formation of acetyle CoA (in the mitochondria) 3) Citric acid cycle (in mitochondria) 4) Electron transport and chemiosmosis (in mitochondria)


Where is the last three stages of cellular respiration?

The last three stages of cellular respiration occur in the mitochondria. They are the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), electron transport chain, and oxidative phosphorylation. These stages involve the production of ATP, the cell's main source of energy.

Compare contrast the chloraplast with mitochondria?

1)Mitochondria occur in the cells of aerobic organisms with the exception of mammalian RBCs while Chloroplasts occur in the cells of green photosynthetic parts of plants. 2)Mitochondria is colourless while Chloroplasts is green in colour. 3) Mitochondria's shape is rod-like or sausage-shaped while Chloroplasts are generally disc-like in outline. 4) Mitochondria liberate energy while Chloroplasts trap solar energy and convert it into chemical energy. 5) Mitochondria perform oxidation of food while Chloroplasts synthesize food by photosynthesis. 6) Mitochondria consumes O2 and liberate CO2 while Chloroplasts consumes CO2 and liberate O2.

What is secondary erythema?

Primary erythema occur in stages 1 and 2 resulting in moderate redness occurring. Secondary erythema occurs in stages 3 and 4 where oedema and tenderness to pain and blistering occurs.


Does REM sleep occur during stage 3 sleep?

No, REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep does not occur during stage 3 sleep. Stage 3 is characterized as deep sleep, which is part of non-REM sleep. REM sleep typically follows the non-REM stages, occurring after stage 3 in the sleep cycle. During REM sleep, brain activity increases, and vivid dreaming often occurs.


Where in the body cells does respiration take place?

Respiration can be split into 3 main processes, Glycolysis, Krebs cycle (Tricarboxylic Acid / Citrate Acid Cycle) and the Electron Transport Chain. Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. Krebs cycle takes place in the mitochondrial matrix (the inner part of the mitochondria) Electron Transport Chain takes place in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.


Where do cellular respiration takes place in what stages?

The three stages of aerobic cellular respiration are: Glycolysis, which takes place in the cytoplasm of the cell. The Krebs Cycle, which takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria. The Electron Transport Chain, which takes place in the inner membrane of the mitochondria.
