Respiration
- What is the equation for respiration
- Word equation: Glucose + oxygen ---> carbon dioxide + water + (energy)
- C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O + (energy)
- C6 H12 O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O + (energy)
- Word equation: Glucose + oxygen ---> carbon dioxide + water + (energy)
- What is the point in respiration?
- Used to produce energy for many metabolic processes
- Break down of glucose in the body
- To get oxygen into all of the cells that require it
- Muscle contractions can take place
- For the separation of chromosomes during nuclear division
- Used to produce energy for many metabolic processes
- What are the two types of respiration?
- Aerobic
- Produces 38 molecules of ATP
- More efficient than anaerobic
- Produces CO2, water and energy
- Produces 38 molecules of ATP
- Anaerobic
- Used when there's is not enough oxygen to generate the energy
which is required.
- Instead of carbon dioxide and water being
produced glucose is broken down into lactic acid
- Only two molecules of ATP are made from this respiration
- The lactic acid produced is toxic
- Used when there's is not enough oxygen to generate the energy
which is required.
- Aerobic
