Class Microbiology

LO:

Discuss the three stages of bacterial metabolism

Compare and contrast fermentation, aerobic respiration and anaerobic
respiration

Describe how production of a proton gradient during bacterial metabolism
allows bacteria to undertake other essential functions



Bacterial Metabolism

Chemoorganotrophs oxidise organic molecules for energy release, also
varies in energy sources and how electron acceptors are used

Proteins, polysaccharides and lipids are broken into simple molecules and
energy is released

Nutrients are distributed down common pathways in order for enzymes to
be used efficiently

Energy released during catabolism is generated by electron movement in
ETC, negative reduction potential to positive reduction potentials

More efficient aerobic respiration



Fermentation
