    large number
  • Total Number of ATP formed after fermentation.
    2
  • Location of fermentation in the cell
    Cytoplasm
  • State if oxygen is required for each pathway
    Aerobic - yes - oxygen is required
    Fermentation - No - oxygen is not required
  • list Four cellular activities that ATP provides energy for.
    muscle cell contraction,
    cell division,
    protein synthesis,
    transmission of nerve
    impulses
  • Word equation for aerobic respiration
    Glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + energy
  • Why do sperm cells have a greater number of mitochondria than body
    cells
    the higher the energy requirement of a cell the greater the number of mitochondria present in that cell. Sperm cells need more energy than
    body cells
