Respiration And Breathing 🫁

Question 1

Respiration

Answer 1

The process that release energy from food

Question 2

The equation for respiration for words is

Answer 2

Glucose+oxygen->carbon dioxide+water+energy

Question 3

Aerobic respiration

Answer 3

Needs oxygen to release energy from food

Question 4

Anaerobic energy

Answer 4

Does not use oxygen to release energy from food

Question 5

How does oxygen get to our cells?

Answer 5

Oxygen is carried by the haemoglobin in red blood cells to all other cells of the body

Question 6

Examples of anaerobic respiration

Answer 6

Yeast converts supars to alcohol in
"Fermentation" - this produces alcohol for drinks such as beer and wine!

Question 7

Nose

Answer 7

When we inhale through our nose hairs and mucus trap dirt and bacteria and the air is warmed and moistened

Question 8

Trachea

Answer 8

The trachea, or windpipe, carried air and and from the lungs

Question 9

Bronchus and bronchioles

Answer 9

Each bronchus carries air between the trachea and a lung.

Question 10

Alveoli

Answer 10

Each lung contains millions of tiny air-sacs called alveoli. Their function is gas exchange

Question 11

Gas exchange

Answer 11

Oxygen passes from the air in the alveolus into the blood
vessels. At the same time carbon dioxide and water pass from the
blood vessels into each alveolus
The gases pass in each direction by a process called diffusion.
As an adaptation for diffusion each alveolus has a very thin
lining, is moist and is surrounded by many tiny blood vessels
called capillaries.
