Q

Describe Aerobic Respiration

A

This respiration uses oxygen to break down food molecules.

17
Q

Describe Anaerobic Respiration

A

It uses low or no amounts of oxygen to break down food molecules and the glucose molecule is partly broken down therefore not all of the energy is released.

18
Q

What is fermentation?

A

Fermentation is the breakdown of glucose without the use of oxygen.

19
Q

Light Energy can also be referred as…

A

Radiant Energy
