Cellular respiration

Question 1

Aerobic respiration

Answer 1

1) glycolysis- no oxygen required, occurs in cytoplasm and creates 2 ATP. I glucose molecule is broken into 2 pyruvic acid molecules
2) kreb cycle- occurs in inner matrix of mitochondria. Pyruvic acid molecules broken down further creating 2 ATP

Question 2

Anaerobic Respiration

Answer 2

1) glycolysis- occurs in cytoplasm, requires no oxygen and creates 2 ATP. Glucose broken into two pyruvic acid molecules
2) pyruvic acid molecules converted into lactic acid
3) lactic acid taken into liver and recombine with oxygen to form glucose
- oxygen debt= breathe heavily to increase oxygen level in order to get rid of lactic acid

Lactic acid is bad- causes pain and fatigue

Question 3

Equation

Answer 3

Glucose+oxygen -> carbon dioxide+water+energy
