Respiration Flashcards
What is aerobic respiration
Respiration with oxygen
What is anaerobic oxygen
Respiration with no oxygen
How does respiration produce ATP
Cellular respiration releases energy from glucose, energy is transferred via ATP, ATP is produced in respiration
Aerobic and anaerobic respiration differences
Aerobic
uses oxygen
occurs in mitochondria
releases lots of energy
produces co2 + water
Anaerobic
no oxygen
occurs in cytoplasm
releases small amounts of O
lactic acid or ethanol produced
Aerobic respiration word equation
Glucose + oxygen –> CO2 + water
C6H12O6 + 6O2 –> 6CO2 + 6H2O
Anaerobic respiration equation in animals
Glucose –> Lactic acid
C6H12O6 –> 2C3H6O3
Anaerobic respiration equation in plants
C6H12O6 –> 2C2 H5 OH + 2CO2
