Respiration Flashcards
Where does respiration happen and got what
In our cells to release energy
- contraction
- active transportation
- building large molecules
- cell division
- releases heat
What are the 2 types of respiration?
aerobic and anaerobic
What is the word equation for aerobic respiration?
Glucose + oxygen –>
Carbon dioxide + water + (energy)
What is the balanced symbol equation for aerobic respiration?
C6H12O6 + 6O2 —>
6CO2 + 6H2O + (energy)
Where does aerobic respiration occur
In the mitochondria
What is anaerobic respiration in yeast cells
Fermentation
What is a anaerobic respiration used for?
Brewing
Making bread rise??
What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in yeast cells?
Glucose –> ethanol + carbon dioxide
When does anaerobic respiration occur in muscle cells?
When the blood cannot reach the muscles fast enough to supply them with enough oxygen
What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in muscles cells?
Glucose –> lactic acid
Why does anaerobic only work for a short time?
Lactic acid builds up in the blood which causes cramps
What breaks down lactic acid?
Oxygen
What are the 2 respiration experiments ?
- Hydrocarbon are indicator chances colour from red to yellow when the carbon dioxide levels increase -put a maggot or smthn in!
- thermometer in germinating seeds will produce heat
