cell respiration Flashcards
1
Q
how is atp produced
A
during cellular respiration by breaking down nutrients and food using enzymes
2
Q
organic compounds
A
initial source of energy
3
Q
why is energy released in small quantaties during cellular respiration
A
because if it was’tit would mostly be lost as heat
4
Q
condensation
A
process where water is released and energy required to mak ATP from ADP and Pi
5
Q
hydrolysis of ATP
A
splits ADP by removing one phosphate group using water
6
Q
anaerobic respiration
A
DOESN’T NEED OXYGEN AND ONLY USES CARBOHYDRATES (exercise)
7
Q
aerobic respiration
A
USES OXYGEN AND CARBOHYDRATES, LIPIDS AND PROTEIN
