Aerobic respiration uses oxygen to function and anaerobic respiration functions without oxygen. Generally‚ anaerobic respiration starts by breaking down the molecules

Most people think that every exercise is the same‚ but there is a big difference in all exercises. Do you know the difference between aerobic and anaerobic exercises? What about the benefits they both give and which one benefits you most? Aerobic exercises also called cardiovascular exercises are any sustained‚ rhythmic activity that affects the large muscle groups and makes the lungs work harder as the body’s need for oxygen increases. Many benefits come with doing aerobic exercises

Aerobic vs Anaerobic Cardiovascular vs Resistance Training I’ve heard the terms aerobic and anaerobic a lot. What do these terms actually mean and are they important for my exercise program? ANSWER: Strictly speaking‚ the terms "aerobic" and "anaerobic" refer to the presence and absence of oxygen‚ respectively. Most of our cells prefer to get their energy by using oxygen to fuel metabolism. During exercise with adequate fuel and oxygen (i.e.‚ aerobic)‚ muscle cells can contract repeatedly

Digestion/ Absorption and Homeostasis In order to survive‚ our bodies must bring in energy and nutrients for the cells of the body through eating and digestion of food. To be carried to the cells of the body by the blood stream‚ food must be broken down to molecules. This breaking down of food into molecules‚ small enough to be absorbed into and carried through the blood stream‚ is carried out by the digestive system through the process of digestion and absorption. Digestion is the process of

EXPERIMENT 13 DIGESTION IN THE SMALL INTESTINES ------------------------------------------------- ABSTRACT The small intestine serves as the site of major digestive and absorptive processes. In this experiment‚ the action of pancreatic enzymes on representative samples of each food group under different conditions‚ such as increased/decreased pH and presence of other substances‚ were observed. A pancreatin solution was first prepared from a hog pancreas and was completely neutralized using

Defn. of Digestion: the process whereby a biological entity processes a substance‚ in order to chemically convert the substance into nutrients. It usually involves mechanical manipulation and chemical action. Mechanical Digestion What is it? This type of digestion involves the mixing‚ grinding or crushing of large pieces of food into smaller places. Why does it take place? So that the food we consume is broken down into smaller pieces before we swallow it which in turn makes process of

fragments. This step is made possible by the contraction of the muscle of the stomach‚ the muscularis. Composed of three layers of fibers arranged longitudinally‚ circular and oblique‚ it mixes and kneads the food. Then begins the chemical digestion. Only the digestion of proteins begins in the stomach. The mucosa contains glands that secrete gastric juices. Under normal conditions‚ the production of juices is 2 to 3 L per day. Hydrochloric acid and enzymes are also produced by cells of the stomach. All

DIGESTION IN THE MOUTH: Food is mechanically cut by incisors and canines‚ chewed by molars and premolars‚ and mixed with saliva by the tongue. The saliva has been produced by salivary glands‚ which pour it into the mouth through salivary ducts. This process of introducing food into the mouth is called ingestion. Chewing breaks food into smaller particles so that chemical digestion can occur faster. This cutting and mixing is called mastication. Moreover‚ food is chemically digested by salivary
