Aerobic and Anaerobic Biodegradation This document provides an in‐depth explanation‚ detailing the processes of aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation. It is intended for general audiences and will provide the reader with the necessary information to understand what is happening during the biodegradation process. For those interested in the biochemical processes of the microbial organisms this document will provide a high level explanation of the aerobic and anaerobic processes. Biodegradation

eukaryotic cells.[1] These organelles range from 0.5 to 1.0 micrometer (μm) in diameter. Mitochondria are sometimes described as "cellular power plants" because they generate most of the cell’s supply of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)‚ used as a source of chemical energy.[2] In addition to supplying cellular energy‚ mitochondria are involved in other tasks such as signaling‚ cellular differentiation‚ cell death‚ as well as the control of the cell cycle and cell growth.[3] Mitochondria have been implicated

2014 AP Biology Respiration lab write up Mrs. Beck Background: Aerobic cellular respiration is a pivotal process in which organisms carry out in order to sustain life. It is characterized by the release of energy from organic compounds by means of chemical oxidation within the mitochondria of the cell. The reactants are glucose and oxygen‚ and after a series of complex steps‚ the products of carbon dioxide‚ water‚ and ATP + heat are released. Thus‚ cellular respiration is an exergonic process

Section 33 Yeast Cell Respiration 10/04/2010 Part B: Explanation of Results All cells carry out the process of cell respiration in order to meet their energy needs. It is advantageous for cells to have the ability to metabolize different substrates. In this experiment‚ we investigated each sugar’s (glucose‚ lactose‚ sucrose‚ fructose‚ and lactose/lactaid) cell respiration rate. When referring to my group’s graph and data‚ glucose ended up with the highest respiration rate (1‚177.2 ppm/min)
