Zoology - Cellular Respiration

Zoology - Cellular Respiration

Cellular Respiration is generally one topic that students identify as the most challenging. This is because it is a lengthy process. People who tend to fair better at memorizing often struggle with the process, and there are a lot of new terms. So, people who are better with concepts and processes tend to struggle a lot with recalling every detail. This is a topic that really requires a lot of effort to study the terms and to understand the processes. There are 3 main stages to Cellular Respiration: Glycolysis, Kreb's / Citric Acid Cycle, and the Electron Transport Chain. On the WIU Science Teaching Center website, under Zoology 200, there are links for overview type resources that contain more than one stage of the process, and below that, there is a list of resources separated out by stage.
