Name the three phase of respiration in human beings.

Open in App
Solution

The three main stages of cellular respiration (aerobic) would include Glycolysis, the Kreb's Cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain.

Glycolysis breaks down glucose into 2 Pyretic Acid Molecules in the Cytoplasm, releasing 2 ATP and Hydrogen

The Krebs Cycle takes Citric Acid which is a derivative of Pyruvic Acid and converts this through 4 cycles into Hydrogen, carbon dioxide and water in the Mitochondrial Matrix.

The Electron Transport Chain takes the electron carrying Hydrogens and releases the energy as ATP and water in the Mitochondrial Membranes.
