Respiration

• What is the equation for respiration?

  6O2 + C6H12O6 (glucose) → 6CO2 + 6H2O
• What is anerobic respiration?

  Respiration without oxygen
• What is aerobic respiration?

  Respiration using oxygen
• What are the two types of anerobic respiration?


  Ethanol fermentation and lactate fermentation
• How does aerobic respiration differ from anerobic respiration?

  • Water is produced.
  • More ATP is produced.
  • Glucose is fully broken down.
  • After glycolysis, there are more steps (the link reaction, the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation)
• What is the first stage of both aerobic and anerobic respiration?

  Glycolysis
• What is the end product of glycolysis?

  Pyruvate
• What is the net products of glycolysis?

  • 2 ATP
  • 2 NADH
