Respiration Flashcards
aerobic respiration equation
glucose + oxygen === co2 + water + energy
glucose is completely broken down
anaerobic respiration equation
glucose === lactic acid and energy released
0.83kj energy per gram of glucose
glucose molecule partly broken down
anaerobic respiration
takes place when lack of oxygen reaching respiring cells. occurs in muscles when don’t contrast efficiently. heart and lungs struggle to get sufficient amount of oxygen
build lactic acid and causes cramp
aerobic respiration
chemical process where energy is released from glucose. occurs in cytoplasm in mitochondria
living things respire
oxygen debt
blood carries lactic acid away to live which uses oxygen to break it down. extra oxygen is needed called oxygen debt
respiration is yeast and equation
yeast cells respiration produces different products know as fermentation
process is anaerobic and doesn’t use oxygen
glucose === ethanol + co2 + energy
