Respiration is the release of energy from sugar molecules such as
glucose.
Is respiration an exothermic or endothermic reaction?
Exothermic
Which process in plants produces the glucose required for respiration?
Photosynthesis
examples of how cells use the energy from respiration.
To combine
smal
l molecules to make
large
r molecules
To
break
large molecules into
smaller
molecules
For muscle
contraction
To maintain our body
temperature
To move
substances
around the cell
What is metabolism?
The
combination
of all
chemical
reactions in an
organism
What is the word equation for aerobic respiration?
Glucose +
oxygen
➔ carbon dioxide +
water
What is glucose converted to during anaerobic respiration in animals?
Lactic
acid
word equation for anaerobic respiration in plants and fungi:
Glucose
➔
ethanol
+ carbon dioxide
two reasons animals cells prefer aerobic respiration to anaerobic respiration?
Anaerobic respiration doesn't
break
down the
glucose
molecule
completely
, and so
releases
less
energy than aerobic respiration
Anaerobic respiration produces
lactic
acid which can
damage
cells and leads to an oxygen
debt
