Bio - Respiration in organisms Flashcards
(24 cards)
What is Aerobic respiration ?
It when you break down glucose food occurs with the use of oxygen
What doe the process of respiration involve ?
It involves the taking in oxygen into the cells and using it for eliminating waist products
What are the two types of respiration ?
- Aerobic respiration
2. Anaerobic respiration
What is Anaerobic respiration ?
The break down of glucose food which does not involve oxygen
What type of organism is yeast ?
Yeast is a single celled organism
What type of organism is yeast ?
Yeast is a single celled organism .
What does yeast do ?
Yeast converts glucose into alcohol
On average how many time does an adult human at rest breaths in and out ?

Tracheae
List some similarities of Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration .
- Energy is produced in the break down of glucose food
2. Takes place in the cell of the organisms
List some differences of Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration .
- Aerobic respiration takes place in the presence of Oxygen. Anaerobic does not
- In Aerobic respiration complete breakdown of food happens . In Anaerobic only partial happens
What type of respiration takes place in human muscles during heavy physical exercise ?
Anaerobic
