aerobic + anaerobic respiration

Question 1

respiration

Answer 1

series of chemical reactions that release energy for all cell processes, energy released from chemical stores in food, energy in the form of ATP

Question 2

where does respiration occur

Answer 2

in all living cells = universal process, transfers thermal energy to surroundings = exothermic

Question 3

aerobic respiration

Answer 3

process that releases stored energy in glucose and converts it to energy that can be used by all cells, requires oxygen

Question 4

what is the energy from aerobic respiration used for

Answer 4

synthesis of larger molecules from smaller ones to make new cell material, movement: contract muscles, warmth: increase rate of respiration which releases heat energy

Question 5

word equation of aerobic respiration

Answer 5

glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water

Question 6

anaerobic respiration

Answer 6

process that releases some stored energy from glucose molecules + converts it to a form of energy that can be used in all cells through ATP, occurs in little to no oxygen

Question 7

anaerobic key facts

Answer 7

releases less energy than aerobic (glucose not fully broken down) , occurs in cytoplasm, exothermic

Question 8

anaerobic in humans

Answer 8

occurs when cells can not get enough oxygen, temporary

Question 9

anaerobic in humans word equation

Answer 9

glucose -> lactic acid

Question 10

lactic acid

Answer 10

causes cramps if it builds up in muscle cells, can cause pain + stop muscles contracting (fatigue), oxygen can break down lactic acid (oxygen debt)

Question 11

anaerobic in plants + fungi

Answer 11

occurs in microorganisms + plant cells when theres no oxygen, also known as fermentation

Question 12

anaerobic in plants and fungi word equation

Answer 12

glucose -> carbon dioxide + ethanol
