Cellular Respiration

Question 1

What are the parts of cellular respiration??

Answer 1

Role of glucose 
Oxygen 
Function of ATP
Aerobic/anaerobic respiration 
Production of carbon dioxide 
Product of lactic acid 
Production of ATP

Question 2

What is the role of glucose??

Answer 2

Sugar, from our food, is broken down into water and carbon dioxide.

Question 3

What is oxygen??

Answer 3

A chemical found in the air and that is required for breathing.

Question 4

What is the function of ATP??

Answer 4

Is a high-energy molecule found in every cell. It’s job is to store and supply the cell with energy it needs. It sometimes called the energy currency of the body.

Question 5

What is aerobic respiration??

Answer 5

Uses oxygen and glucose, produces waste carbon dioxide and water as well as providing energy. The energy that was holding the glucose molecule together is released.

Question 6

What is anaerobic respiration??

Answer 6

Involves releasing energy for cells from glucose. Does not require oxygen!!!

Question 7

What is the production of carbon dioxide??

Answer 7

A gas commonly known as CO2 that collects in the tissues and is removed from the body.

Question 8

What is the production of lactic acid??

Answer 8

Chemical produced in the body by muscle tissue and red blood cells; for example, it can be produced during exercise.

Question 9

What is the production of ATP??

Answer 9

Chemical reactions and processes that take place in the mitochondria to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into ATP then to release waste product.
