Bioenergetics

• respiration


  transferring energy from the break down of glucose and it goes into every cell in your body continously
• metabolism


  all the chemical reactions in an organism
• aerobic respiration


  needs lots of oxygen

  most effecient way
• aerobic respiration equation


  C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O
• anaerobic respiration


  used if not enough oxygen

  not as much energy

  need to get rid of latic acid in muscles via blood transporting to liver which turns it into glucose
• Anaerobic respiration equation


  glucose --> lactic acid
• Fermentation


  anaerobic respiration in yeast
• Fermentation equation


  glucose → ethanol + carbon dioxide
• Photosynthesis equation


  6CO2 + 6H2O -- light energy --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
• light intesity

  
• carbon dioxide concentration

  
• use of glucose


  respiration
