Introduction:
As you know you breath oxygen to get energy live, etc. this is because of the respiratory system. The respiratory system consists of making your body cells get oxygen and eliminate the carbon dioxide cells. The respiration needs the help of the cells each cell has its own respiration by the mitochondria that is an organelle. The main function of the mitochondria is to convert the potential energy of the food or the oxygen molecules into ATP. According to Kimball’s biology pages the cellular respiration is the process of changing the molecules like C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O → 12H2O + 6 CO2. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the molecules that transport the chemical energy through all your …show more content…
ATP is what keeps you with energy is what transports the potential energy through your body. By the investigation of Jerry Bergman energy is usually take out from the ATP molecule to work in the cell by a reaction that takes one of the phosphate-oxygen groups, leaving adenosine diphosphate (ADP). When the ATP changes to ADP, the ATP is going to be used. Then the ADP it’s immediately changed in the mitochondria where it is recharged and comes out again as ATP. The mitochondria is in charge of making the cell respiration work. A mitochondria is an organelle that makes potential energy into ATP this organelle takes the nutrients of the food and oxygen and convert it into energy this is the cell respiration this organelle is what makes the energy have energy. The cell respiration consists of changing food into carbon dioxide. The respiration is a chemical reaction that takes place in all living cells like the ones of the animals and plants. Is the form energy is released from the glucose. Aerobic respiration is when glucose and oxygen is converted or changed into carbon dioxide and water and releases the
