Cellular respiration is a fundamental energy-producing metabolic process that breaks down complex organic compounds through oxidation. Here's a comprehensive breakdown of the key aspects:
• Oddychanie komórkowe occurs in the presence of oxygen and involves the complete oxidation of glucose to CO₂ and H₂O
• The process takes place primarily in mitochondria for eukaryotic organisms and in cell membrane invaginations for aerobic bacteria
• It consists of four main stages: glycolysis, bridge reaction, Cykl Krebsa, and the electron transport chain
• The total energy yield from one glucose molecule is 32/30 ATP molecules
• The process is kataboliczny (catabolic) as it involves breaking down complex molecules into simpler ones
