Respiration is basically the opposite of photosynthesis. Respiration uses oxygen and breaks down sugars or carbohydrates for energy and releases CO2 as a byproduct.

What are the two common end production for anaerobic respiration?

energy and lactic acid.


Production of energy without oxygen is called?

Anaerobic respiration.


What do animals produce at the end of anaerobic respiration?

The whole point of cellular respiration is the production of ATP. If it is anaerobic respiration you end up with 2 ATP molecules, if it is aerobic respiration you end up with 32 Atp molecules. Glycolosis, Krebs cycle, and the Electron transport chain are the three main components of aerobic cellular respiration.


One type of anaerobic respiration results in the production of?

One type of anaerobic respiration, called lactic acid fermentation, results in the production of lactic acid as a byproduct.


What is The first stage of voice production which is also known as breathing?

The first stage of voice production, also known as breathing, is called respiration. During this stage, air is inhaled and exhaled to supply the vocal cords with the necessary airflow for speaking or singing. Proper breathing techniques are essential for good vocal production.


Is the end product of respiration called nitrogen?

No. It is ATP, carbon dioxide, and water.


How does the efficiency of energy production in anaerobic respiration compare to aerobic respiration?

In anaerobic respiration, the efficiency of energy production is lower compared to aerobic respiration. This is because anaerobic respiration does not fully break down glucose, resulting in the production of less energy in the form of ATP.


What does 'anaerobic respiration is far less efficient than aerobic respiration' mean?

There are two types of cellular respiration: aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration occurs when there is oxygen present. In total, 36 ATP are produced by the end of aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration occurs when there is no oxygen present. In total, just 4 ATP are produced by the end of anaerobic respiration. Thus, aerobic respiration is more efficient in comparison to anaerobic respiration as it yields more ATP


Which of these is required for the body's production of energy?

oxygen


What is the plant pigment involved in the process of respiration?

Chlorophyll is the plant pigment involved in photosynthesis, not respiration. In respiration, plants use a different pigment called carotenoids to help capture light energy for energy production.


Why is yeast used to make beer and wine?

Yeast is used to produce the alcohol in beer and wine. Yeast is a fungus that feeds on sugars to create energy for itself. When the yeast is deprived of oxygen, as it is in the production of beer and wine, it uses a process called anaerobic respiration to create its energy. The byproducts of anaerobic respiration are ethanol (alcohol) and CO2. This production of alcohol via yeast is called fermentation. Yeast is used in the production of virtually all Alcoholic Beverages.


Plant cells use photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

True. Plants need photosynthesis for food production. Respiration is for energy production
