36 ATP BASICS: Cellular respiration is the process that releases energy by breaking down food molecules in the presence of oxygen. Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochodrion. The 3 phases of cellular respiration are Glycolysis (Fermentation), Krebs Cycle, and Electron Transport. Glycolysis takes place in the cytoplasm. The Krebs cycle and electron transport takes place in the mitochondria. Aerobic respiration (requires oxygen) includes glycolysis, krebs cycle, and electron transort with end products of carbon and hydrogen and a net gain of 36 ATP. Aerobic respiration (does not require oxygen) includes fermentation including glycolysis with end products of lactic acid or ethyl alcohol and carbon; and a net gain of 2 ATP.
