What process uses oxygen to break down glucose?
Cellular respiration!
How does photosynthesis break down the food it makes?
Same way as animals using respiration glucose + Oxygen = carbon dioxide + water So plants use both carbon dioxide (for photosynthesis) and oxygen (respiration)
What do plants use oxygen for?
Oxygen is required for cellular respiration in all cells. During photosynthesis oxygen gas is produced, this is used to produce glucose; oxygen is also then used during anaerobic respiration to break down the glucose to ATP. Oxygen for normal cellular respiration in other parts of the plant is supplied in solution via the root system.
The oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in what process?
Oxygen consumed during cellular respiration is involved in the electron transport chain; it is the final electron acceptor (this is also what makes it either aerobic or anaerobic respiration).
What organelle is needed to break glucose in cellular respiration?
the mitochondria :)
What is used to break the glucose into carbon dioxide and water during respiration?
oxygen
What does oxygen break glucose down during respiration?
carbon dioxide and water
What process uses oxygen and break down glucose?
respiration
What gas is used in cellular respiration to break down glucose?
Oxygen
What process uses oxygen to break down glucose?
Cellular respiration!
What do mitochondria do with the glucose they absorb?
they break down the carbon and oxygen to used in respiration of the cell
What does the body break down during respiration?
Oxygen
Do body cells use cellular respiration to break down glucose?
To release oxygen or to requried energy
When a plant uses carbon dioxide and sunlight to grow?
During cellular respiration, cells use oxygen to break down glucose and release CO2, H2O, and ATP
What molecule do plants break apart in photosynthesis?
Glucose is broken down in cellular respiration and is produced in photosynthesis(during the dark reaction within the stroma) C. Respiration: Carbohydrate(glucose) + Oxygen ---> Energy + Water + CO2 Photosynthesis: Energy + water + CO2 ----> Carbohydrate(glucose) + Oxygen The chemical formula for glucose is C6H12O6.
What does cellular respiration break down in order to release energy?
glucose is broken down in glycolysis during respiration to release energy
Differences between burning and respiration?
respiration is the break down of food substances mainly glucose in the prsence of oxygen, while burning is usually refered to combustion
