Respiration 1 Flashcards
Respiration
Chemical breakdown of glucose to release energy
Internal respiration is controlled by
Enzymes which allow energy to be released in small amounts
What type of food is involved in respiration
Glucose
Respiration is carried out in the
Mitochondria
Energy trapped in molecules in called
ATP
What type of reaction is Respiration
Catabolic
ATP
Adenosine triphosphate
ADP
Adenosine diphosphate
Types of respiration
Aerobic
Anaerobic
Aerobic respiration
Release of energy from good in the presence of oxygen
Anaerobic
The release of energy from food without requiring the presence of oxygen
Eh of anaerobic respiration
Yeast
Word equation
Glucose + oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water + energy
Name the two stages of aerobic respiration
Glycolysis
Krebs cycle
Where does glycolysis occur
The cytosol of the cytoplasm
Cytosol
Liquid part of the cytoplasm
Krebs cycle occurs in
The mitochondria
More folds more.. is produced
Mitochondria
What are in the folds of mitochondria
Electron transport system
What is anaerobic respiration also known as
Fermentation
Name the two fermentation in anaerobic respiration
Lactic acid fermentation
Alcohol fermentation
How is lactic acid formed
In animal muscles when there is not enough oxygen
Equation for lactic acid fermentation
Glucose -> 2 lactic acid + ATP
Alcohol fermentation
Bacteria and yeast
Ethanol and carbon dioxide is produced
