In which Organelle does cellular respiration occur?
Inside the mitochondria.

C6H12O6 + 6 O2 > 6 CO2 + 6 H2 O + Energy Sugar + Oxygen > Carbon Dioxide + Water
What do you NOTICE about the equations for cellular respiration and photosynthesis
What goes in during photosynthesis comes out in cellular respiration, and what goes in during cellular respiration goes out during photosynthesis. Basically, photosynthesis is cellular respiration reversed, and cellular respiration is photosynthesis reversed.
Fermentation
How cells get energy if the organisms don't live somewhere with oxygen. It releases energy but doesn't need oxygen input. It does release much less energy than cellular respiration
Which produces more ATP, fermentation or cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration
What is lactic acid, and why does it occur?
An acid that's produced through fermentation when your cells lack oxygen. It occurs because your cells don't have enough oxygen to do cellular respiration, and they need to produce energy in some way, so they'll produce it through fermentation (lactic acid).
State the Law of Conservation of Energy
Energy is never really created nor destroyed. It just gets transformed into other forms of energy.
What does the mitochondria do?
The Mitochondria produce energy for the cell.
What does mitochondria require to produce energy?
Glucose and oxygen, (the reactants).
What does the cell membrane do?
It controls what moves in and out of the cells.
What moves into the cell during cellular respiration?
Glucose and Oxygen
What waste products move out of the cell?
Carbon dioxide and water
What is needed to do work?
Energy
Cell
Smallest living level of organization
cell membrane
semi permeable organelle in every cell
Mitochondria
An organelle found in large numbers responsible for energy production.
What is cellular respiration about
Getting energy from food at the cellular level
What are the by-products of cellular respiration
carbon dioxide and water
By what two processes are water and carbon dioxide removed from the cell?
Water is excreted out, and carbon dioxide is breathed out.
Is cellular respiration and breathing the same thing?
NO! Cellular respiration is the process of creating energy in the cells, while breathing is just getting oxygen in.
What are the reactants for cellular respiration
glucose and oxygen
What are the waste products of cellular respiration?
carbon dioxide and water
What are the ways a cell can produce energy via cellular respiration?
Aerobic respiration and Anaerobic respiration.
Which respiration is more efficient?
aerobic
What does your body switch to (cellular respiration) when there is not enough oxygen to support your exercise?
Anaerobic respiration (lactic acid fermentation)
Respiration is best described as a process by which
oxygen and glucose are used to make a form of energy
The breakdown of food is called
digestion
Glucose and oxygen are transported to cells by the
blood
