Biology:- Questions and Answers

During intense exercise, there's insufficient supply of oxygen to muscles for Aeroibc Respiration.

Give TWO characteristics of Aerobic respiration:

Two characteristics of Aerobic respiration are- this type of respiration occurs in the Mitochondria and it produces Water, Carbon Dioxide and about 38 ATP Molecules.

In the absence of sufficient oxygen, Anaerobic Respiration occurs.

Suggest ONE disadvantages of Anaerobic Respiration:

One disadvantage of Anaerobic Respiration is that it produces way less energy per molecules than aerobic respiration.

Suggest THREE ways in which respiration differs from breathing:

Three ways in which respiration differs from breathing are-Respiration is the chemical process by which energy is released from food by all living cells whereas Breathing is the physical process of exchanging gases, there's no energy produced in breathing but in respiration energy is produced and released in the form of ATP Molecules, lastly breathing dosen't uses enzymes but respiration does.
