Aerobic Respiration Biology Lecture Materials
These
are the Aerobic Respiration Lecture materials of the Virtual Cell
Biology Classroom. The resources below are used to supplement an actual
college cell biology course.
You have free access to a large collection of materials used in a college-level introductory Cell Biology Course. The Virtual Cell Biology Classroom provides a wide range of free educational resources including Power Point Lectures, Study Guides, Review Questions and Practice Test Questions.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Understand difference between catabolism and anabolism, and what these reactions have to do with metabolism.
- Understand what a redox reaction is and what this type of reaction has to do with metabolism.
- What is ATP, and what is its significance in metabolism.
- Understand the steps of aerobic cellular respiration, with respect to the four sub-pathways (glycolysis, synthesis of Acetyl-CoA, Kreb's Cycle & the electron transport chain). For each sub-pathway, what is the starting molecule, end product molecule, and what energy is extracted?
- What is oxygen's role in aerobic cellular respiration?
- Where does metabolic energy originate? How is it captured? What organelles and pigments are involved?
LECTURE POWERPOINT
Versions of Aerobic Respiration PPT:
Printing: The best way for students to print out the PowerPoint Show is to download the PDF version. Select Print, and, when the Print screen comes up, go to the Print Handling options. Under Page Scaling, select "Multiple pages per sheet", Under Pages per sheet, select "2". That uses up less paper, placing two slides on each page.
The Aerobic Respiration Lecture materials include:
- list of learning objectives
- practice test & review questions
- term paper metabolism assignment

REQUIRED READINGS
Here is what students need to read, in addition to the PowerPoint, to master this topic.
PRACTICE TEST & REVIEW QUESTIONS
These multiple-choice / matching practice test questions and essay review questions are designed to help you better understand the material from this lecture.
Word document instructions for writing a paper on the relationship between metabolism and nutrition. Allows students to choose one of three options. The Calorie King website has a food database to help you with finding grams of carbohydrates, fiber, protein & fats of common food items, for Option 1 of this project.
