Cellular Respiration: Cycles in a Cycle

You might enjoy biochemist Nick Lane's recent book, Transformer: The Deep Chemistry of Life and Death, which is about the Krebs cycle.Cycling free energy is one way to look at ATP hydrolysis. Another way of looking at it is driving proton gradients that allow for favorable thermodynamics for certain processes. See https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NB...
I’m reading Transformer right now. It’s fascinating.
The link below will direct you to an infographic presentation explaining why I believe cellular respiration and survival is essentially like a cycle of cycles. This was originally just a project for my Biology teacher, but I decided to post this work online for you all of you to view it. Enjoy!
