aerobic and anaerobic respiration

Question 1

what is aerobic respiration

Answer 1

respiration with the presence of oxygen. it is the most efficient way to transfer energy from glucose

Question 2

where do most reactions in aerobic respiration happen

Answer 2

inside the mitochondria

Question 3

what is the word equation for aerobic respiration

Answer 3

glucose + oxygen —-} carbon dioxide + water

Question 4

what is the symbol equation for aerobic respiration

Answer 4

C6H12O6 + 6O2 —-} 6CO2 + 6H2O

Question 5

what is anaerobic respiration

Answer 5

respiration without the presence of oxygen. it is the incomplete breakdown of glucose, making lactic acid

Question 6

what is the word equation for anaerobic respiration

Answer 6

glucose —-} lactic acid

Question 7

what is anaerobic respiration in plants and yeast

Answer 7

plants and yeast can respire without oxygen too, but they produce ethanol and carbon dioxide instead of lactic acid

Question 8

what is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in plants and yeast cells

Answer 8

glucose —-} ethanol + carbon dioxide

Question 9

what is anaerobic respiration in yeast cells called

Answer 9

fermentation
