Which process releases less energy: aerobic or anaerobic respiration?

• Aerobic respiration
• Anaerobic respiration
• Both produce the same amount
• Neither releases energy

Carbon dioxide is the reactant for aerobic respiration

Write the word equation for aerobic respiration.

• Glucose + oxygen --> water + carbon dioxide

Yeast respires anaerobically in the absence of oxygen.

Lactic acid is produced in muscles during vigorous activity when oxygen is insufficient.

What is the chemical formula for glucose?

• C6H1206

In aerobic respiration, the chemical equation is Glucose + oxygen → water + carbon dioxide.

What is the main purpose of respiration in living organisms?

• to release energy

Which organelle is primarily involved in aerobic respiration?

• Mitochondria

In yeast cell's anaerobic respiration, glucose is broken down to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide.

What is the term used for a condition where muscles require extra oxygen after exercise

• oxygen debt

During vigorous muscular activity, muscles switch from aerobic to anaerobic respiration when oxygen is limited.

In the study of respiration, why is it important to control temperature?

• To ensure efficient enzyme activity

• To ensure enzyme do not denature

What is the purpose of adding oil or paraffin in the respiration experiment with yeast?

• To prevent oxygen from entering

What observable evidence indicates that yeast is producing carbon dioxide during fermentation?

• limewater turns cloudy
