2f) Respiration

Respiration is the process of Releasing Energy from Glucose which happens constantly In Every Living Cell

Animal Cell:


partfunction
nucleuscontains genetic material, which controls the activities of the cell
cytoplasmmost chemical processes take place here, controlled by enzymes
cell membranecontrols the movement of substances into and out of the cell
mitochondriamost energy is released by respiration here
ribosomesprotein synthesis happens here

Aerobic Respiration Vs. Anaerobic Respiration:
Aerobic: with oxygen and most efficient way to release energy from glucose. use most of the time.
                Glucose and Oxygen -----> Carbon Dioxide and Water 
            C6H12O6      +  6O2     ----->         6CO2         +   6H2O 

Anaerobic: when there is not enough oxygen, usually during vigrous exercise less energy released from glucose and produces lactic acid 
In Humans) Glucose -----> Lactic Acid (and some energy)
                  C6H12O6 ------> 2C3H6O3 

In Plants) Glucose -----> Ethanol (alcohol) + Carbon Dioxide 
              C6H12O6-----> 2C2H5OH            + 2CO2

In Yeast) froth develops and its called fermentation

Aerobic respiration test in yeast- CO2 Purple <----- Normal red -----> Add CO2 Yellow
