what cellular activities can be done using the energy transferred by ATP
Muscle cell contraction
Active transport
Transmission of nerve impulses
Synthesis of proteins
overall word equation for Aerobic Respiration
glucose + oxygen->carbon dioxide + water + lots of ATP
where does stage 1 of aerobic respiration occur

no
where does stage 2 of aerobic respiration take place
mitochondria
what are the products of stage 2 of aerobic respiration
water(H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2)

yes
what piece of equipment is used to measure the rate of respiration
a respirometer
where does fermentation take place
