21
Q

Cellular respiration is

A

for the production of ATP Energy!! involves glucose, oxygen, carbon dioxide and water

22
Q

ATP can be used for…

A

muscle contraction, ion flow

23
Q

fatty acids are

A

lipids+ glycerol

24
Q

Proteins level

A

primary, secondary, tertiary, quaternary. are everywhere in the body and help build muscle

25
Q

Ex of nucleic acids

A

DNA, RNA

26
Q

Cellular respiration meaning,

A

production of ATP

oxidative respiration:
O2 + Gluc -> ATP + H2O+CO2

27
Q

Aerobic vs anaerobic respiration

A

aerobic- producing ATP using O2

Anaerobic- w/out O2

28
Q
