| Question | Answer |
| B1.3 Respiration | Respiration is an exothermic chemical reaction that releases energy. |
| Anaerobic respiration -takes place with just glucose. -produces much less energy -produces 2 ATP -oxidation of glucose is incomplete -human muscle can respire this way for short periods of time. | Aerobic respiration -glucose is oxidized to release its energy -this allows food molecules to be broken down -most of the energy is released in the mitochondria -produces 36 ATP |
| Word equations Anaerobic respiration= Glucose-> lactic acid+ (energy released) Aerobic respiration Glucose+ oxygen-> carbon dioxide+Water+energy | Aerobic respiration symbol equation C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O |
