Energy From Respiration Flashcards
1
Q
What does exercise increase
A
Heart and breathing rate
2
Q
Reasons for respiration
A
Muscles to contract
Mammals and birds to keep body temp steady
Build up larger molecules to smaller ones
3
Q
Equation for anaerobic
A
Glucose-> lactic acid and energy
4
Q
Why is anaerobic less efficient
A
Lactic acid builds in muscles
Less energy released
5
Q
Oxygen debt
A
Repaying oxygen after vigorous exercise
6
Q
Equation for aerobic respiration
A
Glucose+oxygen->carbon dioxide + water+ energy
