what is cellular respiration?
the process of breaking down food to produce energy in the form of ATP
the process of breathing
the process of cells moving in the body
what are the types of respiration?
aerobic
anaerobic
Anaerobic respiration is the most efficient type of respiration
what is the aerobic respiration equation?
glucose -------> carbon dioxide + lactic acid + ATP + water
Glucose + oxygen ------> carbon dioxide + ATP + water
Aerobic respiration produces a lot of energy in the form of ATP
what is the organelle responsible for respiration
chloroplasts
mitochondria
nucleus
chlorophyll
What are the three structures of the respiration organelle?
outer membrane
cristae - folded inner membrane
stroma - fluid
matrix - fluid
grana - stack of thylakoids
what are the factors that affect respiration
Temperature and body's energy demand
light intensity and carbon dioxide concentration
oxygen concentration and water
