Cards (13)

  • Respiration
    Taking in of food and combining it with oxygen to make energy
  • Energy
    The ability to do work
  • Work
    Done when a body is moving
  • Respiration
    Glucose + Oxygen
  • Anaerobic respiration

    The release of energy from food without oxygen
  • Anaerobic respiration in animals
    • Lactic Acid
  • Anaerobic respiration in plants
    • Ethanol and Carbon Dioxide
  • Anaerobic respiration in animals when exercising and not enough oxygen present
    Makes Lactic Acid (cramp)
  • Anaerobic respiration in yeast cells

    Produces ethanol - fermentation
  • Respiration
    • There are a lot of steps so is known as a process
    • New substances are produced so is a chemical process
    • All these processes occur in the cell so known as a biological process
  • Mitochondrion
    • Many reactions occur in the mitochondrion - RESPIRATION
    • LIVER AND SPERM CELLS HAVE LOTS OF MITROCHONDRIONS FOR ENERGY
  • Factors affecting respiration
    • Glucose availability
    • Oxygen
    • Temperature (enzymes - control biological processes)
  • Yeast and different temperature experiment
