cellular respiration Flashcards
cellular work (D;2.1.1)
- work done to maintain life
- all chemical reactions in a cell
- metabolism
- energy is needed to do vital purposes
- growing,excreting,feeding,moving,reproducing,sensing
cellular respiration (D; F)
- process of releasing energy from molecules
- formula: oxygen + glucose -> water + carbon dioxide + energy
aerobic (D)
describes respiration that uses oxygen from the air
energy (D)
product of respiration
glucose (D)
sugar required for respiration
photosynthesis (D)
process carried out by plants to obtain glucose for respiration
breathing (D)
process of moving air in and out of lungs (not same as respiration)
mitochondria (D)
-where most respiration reactions occur
muscles (D)
contract because of energy released during respiration
temperature (D)
gained from energy in respiration which keeps temp. of animals constant
water (D)
released from respiration
carbon dioxidde (Dd)
released from respiration
protein (D)
built up from amino acids
surface area of mirchindria
increased because of folds in mitochondria membranes
