Respiration Flashcards
(4 cards)
1
Q
Process of Respiration
A
Chemical reaction carried out in all living organisms
Glucose broken down turns into ATP
2
Q
Aerobic & Anaerobic Respiration
A
Aerobic Respiration: Glucose + Oxygen -> CO2 + Water
Anaerobic Respiration: (Yeast) Glucose -> Ethanol + CO2
(Animal cells) Glucose -> lactic acid
3
Q
Comparison (Aerobic)
A
Aerobic:
Oxygen needed
Glucose breakdown complete
Products: CO2 + Water
Energy released a lot
4
Q
Comparison (Anaerobic)
A
Oxygen not needed
Glucose breakdown incomplete
Products: Animal cells (lactic acid)
Yeast (CO2 + Ethanol)
A little energy released
