Cellular Respiration Course

What will I learn?
This course covers the four stages of aerobic respiration in precise mechanistic detail, including glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. You will learn how the electron transport chain generates the proton gradient that drives ATP synthase, and how cells calculate and regulate their total energy yield. The course also addresses fermentation, anaerobic respiration, and the metabolic flexibility that allows cells to switch between fuel sources. You will explore how hormones such as insulin, glucagon, and epinephrine coordinate respiratory flux across tissues. Additional chapters connect respiratory biochemistry to mitochondrial disease, cancer metabolism, reactive oxygen species, and laboratory research techniques.

Your classes are perfect. I purchased the one-year package and finally have the opportunity to follow various topics of interest without needing to switch platforms... I thank you for everything you do, I've already recommended you to other people...

I like how the lessons are straight to the point and how I can switch chapters and skip content I don't need.

I like the content and the presentation style and video transcription, which speeds up the process!

The platform is fast, simple to use. The diversity of content and complementary videos really help with learning.
