Respiration Flashcards

1
Q

Cellular Respiration

A

Is the chemical process where glucose is broken down( from digested food in the digestive system ) gradually in the presence of oxygen (aerobic respiration) or in the absence of oxygen(anaerobic respiration) to release energy.

Q

When someone is running

A

More energy has to be released, therefore increases to supply glucose and oxygen to the muscle cells increases in order to pump more blood around the body therefore increasing the pulse rate

Q

When someone is sleeping

A

Less energy has to be released, oxygen and glucose reach the muscle cells slower in order to pump blood more slower therefore the pulse rate is slower

Q

Glycosis(Atp-end product)

A

Occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell outside the mitochondrion
Glucose is broken down by the pyruvic acid. Alpha kito acid(organic acid) produced after cataclysm /anabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats

Energy rich hydrogen atoms are given off and move into the mitochondrion

Atp is formed during glycosis

Q

Krebs cycle

A

Series of cyclic reactions that takes place in the mitochondrion
The pyruvic acid that entered the mitochondrion is broken down into energy rich hydrogen atoms and carbon dioxide which is released as gas

Q

Electron transport chain

A

Takes place in the mitochondrion
The energy from the hydrogen atoms is used to form energy rich atp
The hydrogen atoms combine with oxygen to form water

Oxygen influenced materials to produce atp which releases chemical energy for us to move.

Q

Anareobic respiration

A

Takes place in the absence of oxygen. Glucose is partially broken down and less energy is released
Lactid acid fermentation and alcohol fermentation occurs

Q

Role of anaerobic respiration in the industry

A

Yeast and other fungi respire anaerobically and are used to produce alcoholic beverages such as beer and wine.
Yeast cells are also used to cause bread to rise during the baking process
Fermentation process is used to produce cheese.

Q

Difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration

A

Aerobic
Occurs in presence of oxygen
Products are carbon dioxide and water
Large amount of energy is released
Occurs in the mitochondrion of cells
Produces a lot of atp per glucose molecule
Used when heart rate and breathing rate rise

Anearobic respiration
Occurs in absence of oxygen
Products are lactic acid (animals) or carbon dioxide and ethanol(plants/yeast cells)
Small amount of energy is released.
Occurs on the cytoplasm of cells
Used during the first 1-2 minutes of exercising
Produce less atp per glucose molecule

17
Q

Lactic acid causes you to not

A

Overexert your muscles and suffer an injury and gives you time to get oxygen to continue. (cramp)

18
Q

Any sugar containing product needs to have

A

Atleast one glucose molecule in order to ferment

19
Q

Breathing system is used by the body

A

To get oxygen needed for respiration and to get rid of the waste product co2

20
Q

Breathing in

A

Inhalation when you breath in air, including oxygen into your lungs

21
Q

Breathing out

A

Exhalation, breathe out contents from your lungs and getting rid of the gas waste product co2

22
Q

Gas exchange takes place in the

A

Alvoeli where oxygen is transferred into the blood and carbon dioxide moves out of the blood

Each alvoelus has a thin wall so that gas exchange between the lungs and the blood can take place quickly

23
Q

In the lungs oxygen travels to thousands of

A

Tiny air sacs called alvoeli converted by tiny blood vessels

24
Q

Lactic acid causes

A

Fatigue and cramps

25
Q

A lot of oxygen is needed to

A

Get rid of the lactic acid that has built up in the body

26
Q

Activities with aerobic

A

Running, biking, swimming

27
Q

Activities with anaerobic

A

Sprinting and lifting weights

28
Q

Path of oxygen into the lungs

A

Trachea
Bronchus
Bronchiole
Alvelous
