Cellular Respiration Concept Map Goal - Create a concept map to illustrate the relationship between the mitochondria and the processes related to cellular respiration (energy production). We have identified the terms that you should use in the map and provided some questions to help you build the map.

Using colored pencils, follow these steps:

Rank the terms from the most abstract and inclusive to the most concrete and specific.

Cluster the terms that function at similar level of abstraction and those that interrelate closely (this could be color coded).

Arrange concepts into a diagrammatic representation.

Link the terms you have been given with lines and words that describe the relationship between them.

It is important to recognize that all concepts are in some way related to one another. Therefore, it is necessary to be selective in identifying cross-links, and to be as precise as possible in selecting the linking words that connect concepts. A concept map is seldom "finished". There are always more concepts that could be added and refinements that could be made.

Example Concept Map: Use these terms you may want to use some more than once: ADP, ATP, Glycolysis, Glucose, Pyruvic acid, Cytoplasm, Mitochondrial matrix, Cristae, Electron transport chain, FAD, FADH2, Citric Acid /Krebs Cycle, NAD, NADH, Electrons, Hydrogen ions, CO2, O2
