Q

State the three main uses of the energy transferred in your body during aerobic respiration

A

growth movement and constant temperature

17
Q

What is oxygen dept?

A

The amount of oxygen to remove the build up of lactic acid in the muscles

18
Q

Anaerobic respiration in other organisms word equation

A

glucose –> ethanol + carbon dioxide

19
Q

Why do we respire anaerobically?

A

If muscles work hard for a long time they become fatigued and don’t contract efficiently. if there is not enough oxygen

20
Q

What is the sum of all the reactions in the body?

A

Metabolism

21
Q

where is lactic acid converted back to glucose?

A

liver
