I feel like even with biology, microbiology, biochemistry, I have never understood this as I do now. I wish I had known about this when I studied in undergrad!
I once learned that IF you delete your sources of simple/complex sugars, your body turns to fat, which has roughly 2X the energy then a carb (due to high number of C-H bonds) I also learned that if you have no fat to breakdown for energy, your body will then turn to proteins (amino acids) which can cause acidity in the blood. Are all these processes of breaking down food considered Cellular Respiration?why carbs as #1 choice? Why not fats since they are packed with more energy?
WOW this is great! my teacher is good but he totally jumped into glycolosis without even going over this kind of overview so I didn't really get what the heck glycolosis was really for...but now I do!
Hi Professor Fink!!! If Homo sapiens get 34 ATPs from OP and only 2 from glycolysis, then don't you suppose it's more effective to get your raw fuel from fat, which is a substrate for Acetyl COA, which is a substrate for OP (given that you also get the essential amino acids)? Would you agree that we never need to eat anything that breaks down into glucose? Thx... - lc
I am studying for IB Biology and I was so frustrated that the textbook didn't explain anything properly. Watching your video here released all my stress and now everything makes PERFECT sense. Why can't my textbook explain like this ?
Thanks professorfink, I have my midterm today and watching your videos about cellular respiration made it much easier for me to understand the whole precess.
thank you so much for this! I'm using a review book, but i find it so much easier when someone's explaining it to me. AP/SAT II bio test is coming up, and the cellular respiration is by far the hardest chapter to understand (at least that's how i feel).
Thank you very much for your vids. Theyre not only amazing but w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l. Finally I do understand EVERYTHING that I should have understood during med-school and didnt. :) Thanks a whole bunch for your talent and for teaching here.
:O very interesting! i have a deeper understanding now, thank you so much is very interesting, but one question: why if NAD is in fact niacin can be used to make the body release waste material? (i have seen people taking niacin and turning red as hell,jaja) how does this process occurs, or is it related to the cellular respiration?
NAD+ is floating around in the cell and picks up a hydrogen to make NADH.. ....NAD+ is like a carrier for hydrogen that brings it to the electron transport chain and will inturn make ATP and H2O .. i hope that helps
Professor Fink, you are exceptional. You may have just saved my life, as I nearly fell asleep watching my teacher make a half-hearted attempt at explaining this topic. You actually seem to care. THANK YOU.
the vedio you make is very good i like very much to se, i have go to school here in Danmark, but i have a little problime my homework this is a kind of photosinthisize and a greenhouseeffekt i hope you can helpme thanks
The process of oxidative phosphorylation in the following processes of cellular respiration acts as a catalyst for the chemical reactions occuring in the Electron Transport Chain that allow for the formation of ATP.
In simpler terms: Yes. It provides the "spark" or the phosphate molecule needed for ADP to become ATP.
During glycolysis, where do the two hydrogen atoms that react with NAD+ come from? (i.e. in "NAD+ + 2H ---> NADH + H+" which molecule is oxidised to give the 2H?)
Excellent !! I love your use of analogies in order to help explain it better. You have a way of gaining a person's attention through your articulation and enthusiasm. I wasn't bored one bit and was intrigued by the whole thing. Thankyou for making it fun to learn this!!!
Professors like you remind me why I am a Biology major! This was so extremely helpful! Do you have any videos on subjects other than cellular respiration?
Thank you so much, Professor!

Technically, each H atom is 1 proton (H+) and 1 electron. So, 2 H atoms = 2 protons and 2 electrons.
Each NAD+ picks-up 1 proton (H+) and 2 electrons, becoming NADH. The other proton is H+.
So 2 NAD+ plus 4 H becomes 2NADH + 2H+.
For simplicity, I prefer to say 2 NAD become 2 NAD-H2
