Anaerobic and aerobic respiration

anaerobic (definition)

does not require oxygen

aerobic (definition)

requires oxygen

glycolysis

1st step of cellular respiration that does not require oxygen to produce 2 ATP

Cell

Place where 1st step of cellular respiration (glycolysis) occurs

mitochondria

Where cellular respiration occurs

anaerobic respiration (ATP)

Type of respiration that produces 2 ATP

Lactic acid fermentation

A type of anaerobic respiration, undergone by humans and animals

aerobic respiration (ATP)

Type of respiration that produces 32-34 ATP

ethanol (alcohol)

Product of alcohol fermentation that would be used to create adult beverages

Lactic acid

Product of lactic acid fermentation

glucose

Type of sugar needed for aerobic and anaerobic respiration

What process does glycolysis happen in?

occurs in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration

alcohol fermentation (equation)

C6H12O6 → 6CO2 + alcohol + ATP

aerobic respiration (equation)

C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

anaerobic respiration (alcohol fermentation) (real life connection)

Process that causes grapes to ferment in a sealed barrel to create wine or alcohol

Aerobic respiration (real life connection)

Process that causes humans to breath heavily during exercise.

Glycolysis, the 1st step of cellular respiration does not need oxygen to produce 2 ATP

Reason why anaerobic respiration can produce ATP

lactic acid fermentation (what happens to body)

Process that causes muscles to burn after overworking/fatigue.

Alcoholic fermentation (definition)

A type of anaerobic respiration, undergone by plants/fungus/bacteria

Carbon Dioxide

A product of anaerobic respiration that was used to raise the bags of yeast.

Digestion

The process in which the body breaks down food into monomers that can be used to make ATP

ATP

Energy source for the cells

Monomer

The smallest form of a macromolecule, like glucose

Small intestine

Place where macromolecules are broken down into monomers, the monomers are absorbed into the blood

Esophagus

Food is transported through this from the mouth to the stomach

Mouth

Chemical and mechanical reactions occur here to help break down the food into digestible and swallowable chunks

Saliva

A chemical reaction in the mouth that helps to break down food

Large Intestine

Absorbs water and transports waste

Stomach

Uses chemical and mechanical processes to break down food into macromolecules which are then transported to the small intenstine

Enzymes

Help to speed up reactions and the breakdown of food in the stomach, mouth and small intestine

Water

A by-product of cellular respiration that is replaced by alcohol in anaerobic respiration processes

Chemical Energy

The type of energy plants and trees convert sunlight into

Mechanical Energy

The type of energy that allows us to move!
