Q

description

A

cells obtain energy by combining oxygen and glucose (breaking down) to for ATP’s - the bonds are then broken to create energy

Q

aerobic

A

energy formation using oxygen and glucose, forming 38 ATP’s

words - oxygen + glucose (glycolysis) =carbon dioxide + water + 38 ATP’s
symbol - 6 o2 + c6h12o6 (glycolysis) = 6 co2 + 6 h2o + 28 ATP’s

Q

comparison

A

raw materials -
oxygen
glucose
enzymes

glucose
enzymes

products -
ATP (38)
co2
h2o

pyruvic acid (then into lactic acid)
ethanol + co2

ATP recycled -
38 (2 used) = 36
2 (used) = 0

Q

anaerobic

A

energy formation without oxygen (and or fermentation)

words - glucose (glycolysis) = pyruvic acid + ATP = lactic acid

glucose (glycolysis) = ethanol + carbon dioxided

symbol - c6h1206 = pyruvic acid + 2 ATP = Lactic acid
c6h1206 = ethanol + 6 co2

Q

role in industry

A

anaerobic respiration is important because it is the only way to ferment. It allows us to acquire alcohol and make bread using the fermentation of yeast of other fungi.
