Question 1

Describe this experiment:

Answer 1

CO₂ is a produced by Aerobic Respiration in all animals - even woodlice :)

Question 3

What is Aerobic Respiration?

Answer 3

Respiration in the presence of Oxygen

glucose + oxygen ———► energy + carbon dioxide + water

Question 4

What is Anerobic Respiration?

Answer 4

Respiration in the absence of Oxygen

glucose ——-► lactic acid + energy

Question 5

Is animal respiration

Anerobic?

or

Aerobic?

Answer 5

Animal respiration is mainly Aerobic because Oxygen is carried to every cell by our blood.

Sometimes there isnt enough Oxygen available (eg. during strenous exercise), then repiration is Anerobic

Question 6

Answer 6

Respiration is the release of energy from food

Water

Question 9
