glycogen breaks down into ATP as well as lactic acid. This system supplies ATP slower than the Phosphocreatine system. The body cannot produce enough ATP to maintain this energy source for longer than around 2 minutes. There is a limit to anaerobic respiration because of the lactic acid. The buildup of lactic acid will end up stopping the movement of the muscles are it beings to become painful. The anaerobic energy system is commonly associated with the 400m sprint‚ 100m swim‚ most teams sports and

carried out by living organisms. This process is carried out in two different ways: anabolic and catabolic. The catabolic breaks down large chemical compounds while anabolic synthesizes components to create larger molecules. Respiration provides energy for these reactions‚ and respiration needs oxygen to occur. Thus‚ calculating the change in oxygen can determine metabolic rate (University‚ 59). In this experiment‚ we will observe and analyze the oxygen consumption of Carassius auratus‚ also known as goldfish

equation for cellular respiration? (6) Answer: Organic compounds + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy OR C6H12O6 + 6O6 → 6C02+ 6H20 + Energy (ATP + heat) Question 9.6: Explain why ATP is required for the preparatory steps of glycolysis.(2) Answer: ATP is used to phosphorylate the fuel molecules.

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 photochemical reaction

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

human body is called cellular respiration. It is defined as a process in which cells take the food humans ingest and turn it into energy that can be used by the body in the form of ATP‚ also known as‚ adenosine triphosphate. The creation and distribution of ATP is vital to humans and their survival on earth simply because ATP is the energy bodies use in order to continue the tasks they need to keep the human body functioning. The overall goal of cellular respiration is to create ATP. In doing so

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation or better known as CPR is the revival or return to function of the heart and lungs. This is done by Cardiac massage‚ artificial respiration‚ and drugs to maintain the circulation of oxygenated blood to the brain. In 1950’s a surgeon opened the chest of a patient that suffered a heart attack and subsequent and cardiac arrest. After opening the papatientschest he performed a heart massage‚ which was a successful maneuver. This was turned out to be the basis for the
