Breathing and Respiration Flashcards
we get glucose from…
digesting carbohydrates in our food
aerobic respiration
a chemical process in which oxygen is used to make energy from sugars.
word equation for aerobic respiration
oxygen + glucose —> carbon dioxide + water
breathing happens when…
the muscles between the ribs and in the diaphragm change the size of the lungs
ventilation
the movement of air into the lungs
anaerobic respiration word equation
glucose —> latic acid
EPOC (excess post-exercise consumption)
the need for extra oxygen which helps to turn lactic acid back to glucose and replace in the oxygen loss from blood and muscle cells
test for carbon dioxide is…
limewater (clear and colourless liquid turns cloudy as it absorbs carbon dioxide)
anaerobic respiration
type of respiration through which cells can break down sugars to generate energy in the absence of oxygen
aerobic means requiring…
oxygen
when you inhale, the diaphragm
becomes flatter
when you exhale, the diaphragm…
becomes more domed
when you inhale, your ribs move…
up and out
when you exhale, your ribs move…
