B9 - Respiration

Question 1

what is Aerobic?

Answer 1

Using oxygen

Question 2

what is Anaerobic ?

Answer 2

Not using oxygen

Question 3

What is Oxidation?

Answer 3

A reaction with oxygen. In this case, food molecules like
glucose reacting with oxygen

Question 4

What is Lactic acid

Answer 4

Chemical produced by the incomplete oxidation of glucose
(anaerobic respiration)

Question 5

What is the balanced symbol equation for aerobic respiration?

Answer 5

C6H12O6 + 6O2 →6CO2 + 6H2O

Question 6

what is areobic respiration?

Answer 6

A chemical process in which oxygen is used to make energy from carbohydrates (sugars). Also called aerobic metabolism, or cell respiration.

Question 7

what is aneroebic respiration?

Answer 7

Anaerobic respiration releases much less energy than aerobic respiration. In yeast, we call the anaerobic respiration fermentation. This is a very useful process: for making bread (the CO2 makes it rise) and making alcoholic drinks (since ethanol is a type of alcohol).

Question 8

what is the equation for anerobic respiration

Answer 8

glucose lactic acid
