biology- respiration b2 Flashcards
1
Q
animal cell key features
A
mitochondria-where aerobic respiration takes place
cytoplasm-where anaerobic respiration takes place
2
Q
aerobic respiration word equation
A
oxygen+glucose = carbon dioxide +water
3
Q
symbol equation for aerobic respiration
A
6O2 +C6H2O6 = 6CO2+6H2O
4
Q
aerobic respiration key features
A
-takes place in mitochondria
-complex breakdown of glucose
-releases lots of energy
-slower than anaerobic
5
Q
anaerobic respiration word equation
A
glucose =lactic acid +(energy)
6
Q
anaerobic respiration key points
A
-takes place in cytoplasm
-incomplete breakdown of glucose
-some energy is released
-faster than aerobic respiration
-lactic acid causes muscle fatigue and pain
7
Q
anaerobic respiration in plants and animals word equation
A
glucose =carbon dioxide + ethanol
