Done by: Instructor: Introduction Respiration is the number of processes which leads to the oxidation of organic compounds to produce the energy. There are several types of respiration‚ and one of them is aerobic. During the aerobic respiration‚ human uses the oxygen from atmosphere and produce carbon dioxide. A cardiorespiratory system which includes lungs‚ heart‚ blood vessels and others is responsible for all the processes linked to the respiration and controlled by the nervous system. During

BIOLOGY A REPORT ON RESPIRATION IN INVERTEBRATES COMPILED & PRESENTED BY DEPARTMENT OF ANIMAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL BIOLOGY 2012/2013 SESSION COURSE: FSB201 (CELL BIOLOGY) COURSE LECTURER: DR. NOUTCHA DATE : 7TH MARCH‚ 2013 INTRODUCTION Respiration is one of the characteristics of ALL LIVING THINGS. In the simplest terms‚ "respiration" simply means "breathing". But more formally‚ the term depends on what type of respiration been referred to. Essentially‚ "respiration" refers to gaseous exchange

around the plant as needed. The mesophyll cells have chloroplasts and this is where photosynthesis occurs. Respiration can be defined as the oxidation of the end products of glycolysis with the storage of the energy in the form of ATP. Cellular respiration occurs when oxygen is available‚ and the products are carbon dioxide and water. There are three main pathways in the cellular respiration process. These are: pyruvate oxidation‚ the citric acid cycle‚ and the respiratory chain. Pyruvate oxidation

cannot be used as directly by cell as a source of energy so cells use ATP as their immediate source of energy. * This conversion of glucose into ATP takes place during cellular respiration and there are 2 different forms of cellular respiration depending upon whether oxygen is available or not * Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces CO2‚ water and lots of ATP. * Aerobic has 4 stages: 1) Glycolysis – the splitting of the 6-carbon glucose molecule into 2 3-carbon molecule

Respiration Objectives 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. To describe oxidation and reduction in terms of electron and H+ transfer. To distinguish anaerobic from aerobic cellular respiration in terms of ATP‚ oxygen‚ and chemiosmosis. To demonstrate that carbon dioxide is a product of cell respiration. To determine the effect of boiling on the aerobic respiration of bean seeds and explain the result in terms of enzyme activity. To measure the rate of oxygen consumption in germinating bean seeds. To determine the

Aerobic respiration is the release of energy from glucose or another organic substrate in the presence of Oxygen. Strictly speaking aerobic means in air‚ but it is the Oxygen in the air which is necessary for aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration is in the absence of air. Here is a molecular model of a glucose molecule. You do not need to memorise the diagram for you GCSE exam‚ but it should help you to understand that a molecule of glucose contains six atoms of Carbon (shown in blue)‚ twelve

Tyler Cowan Professor Foltz Biology 181 April 8th 2015 Lab Report: Respiration Abstract: The objective of this lab was to figure out which has a higher cell respiration rate between crayfish and elodea. In order to figure this out we first set up three beakers to represent our control‚ elodea and crayfish and filled them with 75mL of culture solution which were dechlorinated making the solution acidic. We then had to place both the elodea and the crayfish in separate beakers filled with 25mL of

product. This is different from respiration because respiration transforms chemical energy into energy usable by cells; in this case chemical energy is the source. Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts‚ using the chlorophyll inside of the chloroplasts‚ while respiration occurs in the mitochondria. Photosynthesis produces oxygen as a by-product‚ while aerobic respiration requires oxygen to even work. Photosynthesis produces NADPH2 in its workings‚ while aerobic respiration produces NADH+.

and Respiration Explain how photosynthesis and respiration are linked in order to provide you with energy from the food you eat: Photosynthesis is the process in which certain life forms are able to use sunlight to create energy. This energy is created by making carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of chlorophyll. Plants release large amounts of oxygen into the atmosphere as they produce much more than needed during the photosynthesis process. Aerobic respiration is an

Lab 04: Sugar Respiration in Yeast Sugars are vital to all living organisms. The eukaryotic fungi‚ yeast‚ have the ability to use some‚ but not all sugars as a food source by metabolizing sugar in two ways‚ aerobically‚ with the aid of oxygen‚ or anaerobically‚ without oxygen. The decomposition reaction that takes place when yeast breaks down the hydrocarbon molecules is called cell respiration. As the aerobic respiration breaks down glucose to form viable ATP‚ oxygen gas is consumed and carbon
