Oh, wow, oh, oh, wow, oh, oh, wow.

0:13.0

Oh, wow.

0:15.0

Oh, yeah. Hello, you're listening to the Science of Everything podcast, episode 75, Cellular Respiration.

0:39.7

I'm your host, James Fodor.

0:41.4

So it's been a while since the last show, and I'm sorry about that.

0:44.4

I have been busy with other commitments, but I am proud to announce that the show is going to be coming back.

0:54.0

Well, it never really went away, but I'm hoping to record more regularly now.

0:58.0

I'm not exactly sure how regularly that will be, but significantly more regularly than it has

1:02.1

been at the very least.

1:03.4

So today, we're going to kick off again with a discussion of cellular respiration, which

1:08.3

is something that I've been wanting to do for a while.

1:11.3

So in this episode, we're going to talk about the processes involved in the generation of

1:15.5

energy in cells, including a discussion of the role of ATP as an energy storage molecule,

1:20.5

and then we'll look at glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and

1:25.7

ATP synthase.

1:28.3

Recommended pre-listing is episode 18 Biochemistry Basics.

1:32.3

That one is strongly recommended.

1:34.3

Some of the other chemistry and biology episodes might also be useful

1:38.3

because I'm going to assume a bit of background knowledge,

1:41.3

particularly about certain aspects of biochemistry. So that's recommended background knowledge particularly about certain aspects of biochemistry so that's

1:45.2

recommended background knowledge all that being said let's jump in and get

1:50.3

started so cellular respiration what do we mean by that term it's important to
