Cell respiration
Description
Cell respiration channels metabolic fuels into the bioenergetic machinery of oxidative phosphorylation, being regulated by and regulating oxygen consumption and molecular redox states, ion gradients, mitochondrial membrane potential, the phosphorylation state of the ATP system, and heat dissipation in response to intrinsic and extrinsic energy demands. See respirometry.
In more general terms, internal or cell respiration in contrast to fermentation uses external electron acceptors, transported into the cell from the environment in an electron transport system that generates a chemiosmotic potential to drive ATP synthesis and maintain redox balance.
