Cell Respiration And Metabolic Rate Flashcards
What is the cell restoration equation
food+oxygen——-carbon dioxide+water+ATP
What is cell respiration
the specific extraction of energy from food
What is synthesis?
organic building reactions(making proteins, fats, nucleotides, and others)
What do living organisms do
they extract electrons from chemical bonds in food and convert that energy into ATP to run cell activities
What is atp
a special high energy molecule in the cell
What is ADP
low energy molecules
What has more high energy electrons?
ATP has more high energy electrons than ADP That extra electron energy comes from food molecules.
How is ATP known ass
ATP is like a cell battery charged up by food
What is anaerobic
respiration without oxygen present( without air)
What does aerobic respiration mean?
Respiration with oxygen. Aerobic respiration occurs inside the mitochondrion
What is a mother way of calling anaerobic processes
fermentation and is associated with other membranes of the cytoplasm
When are sugar molecules broken down
the sugar molecule is partially broken down during anaerobic respiration
Aerobic respiration in more context
Aerobic respiration is the efficient process of extraction electron energy from the chemical bonds in organic molecules (food) and converting that energy into the most useful form of energy called ATP to turn cell activities.
Where is oxygen necessary
in aerobic
Which came first in the planet
anaerobic
What are the end products of aerobic
carbon dioxide+ ATP+ water+ Heat
What is the end product of anaerobic
Lactid acid
How many energy is generated per glucose in aerobic
36
How many energy is generated per glucose in anaerobic
2
Where in the cell does aerobic happen
in the mitochondria
Where in the cell does anaerobic happen
in the cytoplasm
Second law of thermodynamics
heat released when energy is transformed from one form to another
Molecular formula
C6H12O6+CO2——6CO2+6H2O+ATP
Where does the CO2 that you breath come from during metabolism
comes from carbon dioxide
Where does the oxygen that you breath into to during metabolism?
goes to water
What is energy output
is the term used to represent all of the energy required to maintain the metabolic processes and activities of an organism
What is the most accurate and direct way of determining the amount of energy used by the body during an activity
is to measure the amount of heat given off
What is the usual method of measuring energy outputs
The oxygen consumption technique
What are mice
mice are endotherms
What is an endotherm
organisms that make their own heat
What calculation do you use to calculate the amount of oxygen consumed in an hour
3600/calculation1 x5=ml
What equation do you use to calculate the metabolic rate of a mouse?
calculation2/weight of the mouse=ml
What organism has the slower rate of respiration?
endotherms
Which organism needless food to survive?
ecotherm
How much food does the cotherm need compared to;the endotherm
23.42
Which organisms would do better if the amount of food is very limited, but the environment is fairly warm
ecotherm
Which organism would do better in a cooler environment where the food is plentiful?
Endotherm
What are ecotherms
an animal that is dependent on external sources of body heat
