Anaerobic Respiration

• What happens when you vigorously exercise and can't take in enough oxygen to break down glucose?

  You reach a point where you require more oxygen
• What type of respiration occurs when the body respires without oxygen?

  Anaerobic respiration
• What is produced when glucose is broken down anaerobically?

  Lactic acid
• How does the energy released during anaerobic respiration compare to aerobic respiration?

  It is less than aerobic respiration
• Where in the cell does anaerobic respiration occur?

  Cytoplasm
• Why is oxygen required after vigorous exercise?

  To remove lactic acid from the body
• Lactic acid is converted into what substances when oxygen is present?

  Carbon dioxide and water
• What is oxygen debt?

  Extra oxygen needed after exercise
• What is the purpose of increased heart rate and breathing rate after exercise?

  To transport lactic acid to the liver
• What products are created from anaerobic respiration in plants and fungi?

  Ethanol and carbon dioxide
