TOPIC 3.7 + 8.1: CELL RESPIRATION 3.7.1 Define cell respiration. Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds in cells to form ATP (adenosine triphosphates). 3.7.2 State that‚ in cell respiration‚ glucose in the cytoplasm is broken down by glycolysis into pyruvate‚ with a small yield of ATP. Glycolysis in cytoplasm: Glucose 2 pyruvates + small amount of ATP (does not use oxygen) 3.7.3 Explain that‚ during anaerobic cell respiration‚ pyruvate can be converted

Cellular respiration is the process by which food is broken down and converted into usable energy for the body. Essentially during this principally catabolic process‚ glucose molecules are broken down into energy known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Thus‚ glucose is the common energy source in cellular respiration. The process of cellular respiration begins with one glucose molecule and oxygen that yields the production of ATP as well as byproducts of water and carbon dioxide. This process is separated

Effect on Photosynthesis Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are often mistaken as the same thing. Although they are similar in many ways‚ photosynthesis and cellular respiration are the exact opposite of each other. Not figuratively‚ but literally the reverse (Photosynthesis). They incorporate the others products while adding some outside energy to create a never ending cycle. This brings us to the photochemical and biochemical reactions of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. In an ordinary

Cellular Energetics: The Rate of Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis over Time Among Various Variables By: Ethan Barnett Introduction Cellular Energetics is the broad term that encompasses both cellular respiration and photosynthesis and refers to how energy changes and reacts within cells. Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down sugars (ATP) in order to produce energy for other chemical reactions. Cellular respiration takes place mainly in the mitochondria and the reactants

Photosynthesis and Respiration Objectives: In this activity we will review the process of photosynthesis and cellular respiration‚ and become familiar with the use of a pH indicator for investigating these processes. Following this activity your group will generate a new research question about photosynthesis or respiration‚ and utilize the pH indicator system for the experiment that your group will design‚ implement and interpret. Introduction: Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and

Goldfish Respiration Abstract The purpose of this experiment is to tests the effects of temperature on the respiration (breathing) rate of goldfish. In order to determine the goldfish respiration change adding small amounts of crushed ice to the water‚ than behavior will be noted. Then‚ the goldfish will experience the same experiment four more times and be noted again. This experiment will be conducted with four students‚ one goldfish‚ a 250 mL and a 150 mL beaker‚ thermometer‚ crushed ice‚

Cellular Respiration Cellular respiration is basically what cells do to break down sugars into a form that the cell can utilize as energy. Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create ATP. ATP is a chemical which the cell uses for energy. The are two forms of cellular respiration‚ aerobic and anaerobic respiration‚ in which will be explained. Regular cellular respiration is aerobic‚ meaning that it requires oxygen‚ but some simple organisms can only do anaerobic cellular respiration‚ which

Photosynthesis Experiment Introduction Photosynthesis is a process used by plants‚ making inorganic molecules into organic molecules (food) using sunlight. Carbon dioxide + Water (mainly from rain) Glucose + Oxygen From this process‚ carbon dioxide comes from environment. Glucose‚ as a product is used to make energy for growth. Lastly‚ the oxygen is a waste product in this chemical reaction‚ which become part of the Earth’s atmosphere. At this experiment‚ carbon dioxide and water

The purpose of the experiment is to determine the effects of sugar on photosynthesis in Elodea. Sugar water with Elodea‚ water with Elodea‚ and water (control) are used to test for photosynthesis. Five drops of sugar water were added to sugar water with Elodea beaker. The three beakers were left under normal light for photosynthesis to occur. After 60 minutes‚ NaOH solution was added to each beaker to test the volume of CO2. The result shows that both Sugar water with Elodea and water with Elodea
