Cellular Respiration

Published

Explain to me in layman's terms cellular respiration and glycosis. The teacher is not doing a very good job and I can't figure out the concept from the book. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I understand that you weren't being sacrastic, but I'm actually confused about how you wondered that after just finishing the semester yourself? You do mean you just finished it at your college right?

Nancy,

I'm in the same boat as you. I don't remember 8th grade bio or anything from college bio, but we just finished the section on Cellular Respiration in my A&P II class and I might be able to help.

The following websites are wonderful with making the steps of CR easier to understand. I basically needed the process to be explained to me like it would be to a 5 year old, and these really helped. Good luck!

The Sparknotes site was closest to what we covered in class, and diagram-wise nearly identical! Thanks for posting that site - I may be able to use it as I finish Bio 30! :)
