    Cards (23)

    • What is the main topic of the video?
      Respiration
    • What is respiration primarily used for in organisms?
      To release energy from glucose
    • What type of reaction is cellular respiration?
      Exothermic reaction
    • What does cellular respiration involve?
      Breaking apart glucose molecules
    • Why is it incorrect to say energy is created during respiration?
      Energy is transferred, not created
    • What is aerobic respiration?
      Respiration with enough oxygen
    • Where does aerobic respiration occur in cells?
      In mitochondria
    • What is the word equation for aerobic respiration?
      Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water
    • What is the chemical formula for glucose?
      C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>12</sub>O<sub>6</sub>
    • What is anaerobic respiration?
      Respiration without oxygen
    • When do humans perform anaerobic respiration?
      During intense exercise
    • What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in humans?
      Glucoselactic acid
    • Why is anaerobic respiration considered inefficient?
      Glucose is only partially broken down
    • What is a toxic byproduct of anaerobic respiration?
      Lactic acid
    • What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in plants and yeast?
      Glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide
    • What is fermentation in yeast used for?
      To produce carbon dioxide and ethanol
    • How is fermentation utilized in the food industry?
      To make bread light and fluffy
    • What products are made using yeast fermentation?
      Beer and wine
    • What are the two types of respiration?
      • Aerobic respiration
      • Anaerobic respiration
    • What are the key points about aerobic respiration?
      • Requires oxygen
      • Most efficient energy transfer
      • Occurs in mitochondria
    • What are the key points about anaerobic respiration?
      • Occurs without oxygen
      • Less efficient energy transfer
      • Produces lactic acid in humans
      • Produces ethanol and carbon dioxide in yeast
    • What are the uses of energy from respiration?
      • Building larger molecules
      • Muscular contraction
      • Maintaining body temperature
