Types of Respiration
Cards in this deck (9)
- 1Define RespirationRespiration is a process in which energy is release due to the break down of glucose and constantly occurs in all of our cells
- 2What are three uses of the energy transferred in Respiration?-Movement (in animals)
-Building larger molecules (eg. proteins from amino acids)
-Maintain body temperatures - 3Define Aerobic RespirationIs Respiration that uses oxygen
- 4Define Anaerobic RespirationIs Respiration that occurs without any oxygen (usually is carried out during vigorous exercise)
- 5Equation of Aerobic RespirationGlucose + Oxygen ---> Carbon Dioxide + Water + (Energy)
- 6Equation of Anaerobic Respiration in AnimalsGlucose ---> Lactic acid + (Energy)
- 7Equation of Anaerobic Respiration in Plants and YeastGlucose ---> Carbon Dioxide + Ethanol + (Energy)
- 8Which Respiration gives out the most amount of energy?Aerobic
- 9Why does heart and breathing rate remain high after exercise?Lactic acid is oxidises, repaying the oxygen debt.
Lactic acid + Oxygen ---> Carbon Dioxide + Water
