All metabolic processes in the body require energy supply (food) but depend on the use of oxygen (O2) for extraction of energy which ultimately results in heat production. There are two approaches to ...
ATP supply & Energy production: Our body has a continuous ATP electron transport supply from the cells’ cytosol (Anaerobic – Glycolysis) and the mitochondria (Aerobic – Citric acid cycle/Respirato...
