What is the symbol chemical formula for aerobic respiration?
C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
True or False: Anaerobic respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen.
False
a) Fill in the blank: The word equation for anaerobic respiration in yeast is _____ → Ethanol + Carbon Dioxide + ATP.
b) how does this occur?
a) Glucose
b)glucose is broken down to produce ethanol, co2 and a small amount of energy
What is produced as a byproduct of aerobic respiration?
Carbon Dioxide and Water
What is the primary difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, while anaerobic respiration does not.
True or False: Glucose is necessary for both aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
True
aerobic respiration is the process by which…
The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy
How do oxygen and glucose reach all body cells?
(6 points
1) Glucose is in the food digested
2) when the food is broken down glucose is acquired and absorbed through villi to the bloodstreams which contain special proteins that take it to cells
3) Once inside the cells, glucose is used as a fuel for respiration.
3) O2 comes from the lungs, through aveoli
4) Hemoglobin in red blood cells binds to oxygen, allowing it to be carried by the blood.
5) The oxygen-rich blood is pumped by the heart through arteries, eventually reaching capillaries
6) In the capillaries, oxygen is released from the hemoglobin and diffuses into the cells, where it’s used in cellular respiration to produce energy
Multiple Choice: Which of the following is a byproduct of anaerobic respiration? A) Carbon Dioxide B) Lactic Acid C) Water D) All of the above
B) Lactic Acid
Similarities and differences between ana and aerobic resp. ( 3 for each)
anaerobic does not require oxygen (occurs in the absence of oxygen) whereas aerobic requires oxygen to proceed
Location:
anaerobic Occurs in the cytoplasm
aerobic Occurs primarily in the mitochondria
Products-
anaerobic - Lactic acid (in animals)
aerobic - Carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O)
Energy Yield:
anaerobic - Produces a small amount of ATP
aerobic - Produces a large amount of ATP (about 36-38 ATP per glucose molecule)
