Definitions:

Aerobic Respiration

A metabolic process that uses oxygen from the air to release energy from glucose, producing carbon dioxide and water as waste.

Citric Acid Cycle

A series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.

Acetyl-CoA Formation

A crucial metabolic process in which acetyl-CoA is produced from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins and is used in the Krebs cycle for energy production.

Electron Transfer Phosphorylation

A process in cellular respiration where electrons are transferred through a series of protein complexes, resulting in the generation of ATP.
