Respiration Flashcards
what is respiration?
respiration is the process that the body uses to release energy from digested food
what is the formula of respiration?
(glucose)+(oxygen)=(carbon dioxide)+(water)+(energy)
how is digested food used in the body?
glucose from digested carbohydrate is an important substance that contains stored chemical (energy)
comparing respiration and combustion
respiration combustion
glucose+oxygen=carbon dioxide+water+energy fuel+oxygen=carbon dioxide+water+fire
-heat and light energy released -heat and light energy is released
-carbon dioxide and water produced -carbon dioxide and water produced
respiration is a controlled reaction combustion is not a controlled reaction
In the body’s cells,glucose and oxygen reacts to release……………… .Some of this is released heat and rest is used by cells.
a)Glucose
b)Carbon Dioxide
c)Energy
In the body’s cells,glucose and oxygen reacts to release Energy .Some of this is released heat and rest is used by cells.
Ans:Energy
The Process Of Respiraion
air enters a human body through the nostrils it moves through the throat then the trachea it enters the bronchi and then enters the lungs
The bronchi forms a network of tubes known as the bronchioles each bronchiole has alveoli at the end
hemoglobin absorbs oxygen from the air and carries it to the tissues all over the body.
