biology- respiration b2 Flashcards
animal cell key features
mitochondria-where aerobic respiration takes place
cytoplasm-where anaerobic respiration takes place
aerobic respiration word equation
oxygen+glucose = carbon dioxide +water
symbol equation for aerobic respiration
6O2 +C6H2O6 = 6CO2+6H2O
aerobic respiration key features
-takes place in mitochondria
-complex breakdown of glucose
-releases lots of energy
-slower than anaerobic
anaerobic respiration word equation
glucose =lactic acid +(energy)
anaerobic respiration key points
-takes place in cytoplasm
-incomplete breakdown of glucose
-some energy is released
-faster than aerobic respiration
-lactic acid causes muscle fatigue and pain
anaerobic respiration in plants and animals word equation
glucose =carbon dioxide + ethanol
