Respiration Flashcards
Word and chemical
Aerobic respiration equation
Glucose + Oxygen -> Carbon dioxide + Water
C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O
Anaerobic respiration in plants, fungi and humans
Humans
Glucose->Lactic Acid
Plants,Fungi
Glucose->Ethanol + Carbon dioxide
Differences between aerobic and anearobic
Aerobic produces more energy but takes more time. Happens in the mitochondria
Anaerobic happens in the cytoplasm. Produces less energy. Though in quick short bursts.
How is anearobic usueful in yeast
Makes achohol and bread
Called fermintation
What is metabolism
It is all the chemical reactions happening in the body
What three things does the body do to increase oxygen in muscles
Heart rate as heart pumps more oxygenated blood around body
Breathing rate increases as more oxygen is needed for body
Volume of gas increases
What is oxygen debt
The amount of oxygen needed to react with built up lactic acid and remove it from cells
What happens to lactic
