16
Q

What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration

A

Glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide + energy

17
Q

Where does the glucose for respiration come from

A

dietary sources and glycogen

18
Q

How are glucose and oxygen delivered to the muscles

A

The circularity system

19
Q

What does the blood remove from muscle cells

A

carbon dioxide and other waste products

20
Q

Where in the cell does respiration occur

A

the cytoplasm and mitochondria

21
Q

What happens to the breathing rate during excerise

A

Increases

22
Q

Why does the breathing rate change during excrsize

A

your body uses more oxygen and produces more carbon dioxide.

23
Q

What happens to the heart during excerise

A

your heart typically beats faster so that more blood gets out to your body.

24
Q

Why does heart rate change during excerise

A

So that more blood gets out to your body

25
Q

What does the liver do to lactic acid

A

oxidised to carbon dioxide and water, or. converted to glucose, then glycogen - glycogen levels in the liver and muscles can then be restored.

26
Q

Why is it important to repay oxygen debt after excersize

A

lactic acid will be leftover.

27
Q

What can fermentation be used in for baking

A

Dairy, dough, fruits & grains

28
Q

What can fermentation be used for in baking

A

During baking the carbon dioxide expands and causes the bread to rise further.
