This episode unpacks the fundamentals of metabolism, explaining energy transformations and ATPâs vital role with vivid analogies. We cover the stages of cellular respiration, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation, while also analyzing how cells adapt to oxygen deficiency with examples like muscle fatigue in athletes. Learn the science behind energy generation and the impact of oxygen on metabolism.
