Respiration

• ATP provides energy for cells
• Glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water + ATP

  C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
• Aerobic respiration uses oxygen to release energy from the breakdown of molecules like glucose

  Glucose + oxygen --> carbon dioxide + water
• Anaerobic respiration releases energy from the breakdown of molecules like glucose without using oxygen

  Glucose --> lactic acid
