    What Is Cellular Respiration and What Influences It’s Function? BSC 2010L 06/19/2013 Abstract: Eating is a basic essential of life that most people don’t pay much mind till they’re hungry. Eating is essential and very important for various reasons but one of the main reasons is for energy. Our bodies use a term called cellular respiration which is the process by which chemical energy of food is released and partially captured in the form of ATP or energy. Throughout the experiment

    Lab 5Cellular Respiration Introduction: Cellular respiration is an ATP-producing catabolic process in which the ultimate electron acceptor is an inorganic molecule‚ such as oxygen. It is the release of energy from organic compounds by metabolic chemical oxidation in the mitochondria within each cell. Carbohydrates‚ proteins‚ and fats can all be metabolized as fuel‚ but cellular respiration is most often described as the oxidation of glucose‚ as follows: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + 686 kilocalories

    There are two types of cellular respiration that organisms use‚ aerobic and anaerobic. But first of all‚ what is cellular respiration? Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the body cells called the mitochondria. This process is also shown in its chemical formula‚ C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O → 12H2O + 6CO2. Cellular respiration is for heterotrophs‚ such as humans‚ animals‚ fungi‚ and bacteria. They use organic compounds in the presence of oxygen and are converting it into carbon dioxide and

    Cellular Respiration Project Objective Answers 1. The overall equation for Cellular Respiration is 6O2 + C6H12O6 6H2O + 6CO2 + energy. Overall‚ it is the reverse reaction of photosynthesis‚ but chemically‚ the steps involved are very different. All you have to do is just flip both sides of the equation of photosynthesis‚ and you have the opposite‚ which is the equation for cellular respiration. They are reversible chemical reactions‚ meaning that the products of one process are the exact

    Cellular Respiration Photosynthesis Organelles Mitochondria Chloroplast Organelle Structures The double-membraned mitochondrion can be loosely described as a large wrinkled bag packed inside of a smaller‚ unwrinkled bag. The two membranes create distinct compartments within the organelle‚ and are themselves very different in structure and in function. Two membranes contain and protect the inner parts of the chloroplast. The stroma is an area inside of the chloroplast where reactions occur and starches

    Investigate the effect of temperature on the rate of respiration of various parts of plants (germinating seeds and dormant (non-germinating) seeds)‚ by measuring the oxygen consumption and change in gas volume of respirometers containing either germinating or non-germinating seeds at different temperatures to measure the rate of respiration of these beans at different temperatures. Hypothesis 1.Germinating seeds have a higher rate of respiration as compared to non-germinating seeds and the glass

    AP Bio p. 6 December 8‚ 2011 AP Biology Lab 5: Cellular Respiration Introduction/Lab Objective: In this lab we are testing how the process of cellular respiration is affected by temperature‚ and also how it is different between germinating and non-germinating peas. Cellular respiration is a catabolic process (breaks down organic material into usable cell energy) that produces ATP. The electron receivers are inorganic. Cellular respiration releases energy from organic material through chemical
