What is the difference between the two types of respiration?
Aerobic respiration and Anaerobic Respiration. Aerobic is respiring in the presence of oxygen Anaerobic is respiring in the absence of oxygen
Why does plants respiring in an air tight bottle not die from a lack of oxygen?
Plants don't consume oxygen. They consume carbon dioxide.
How is breathing different from tissue respiration?
Breathing is the physical contraction of muscles such as the internal and external intercostals that draw air into and out of the lungs. Tissue respiration involves the tissues using Oxygen brought to them in the blood and respiring to produce CO2.
Why is cyanide harmless to some bacteria?
Because some bacteria are anaerobic (do not need oxygen to survive). In humans and other aerobic organisms, cyanide prevents cells from respiring (turning oxygen and glucose into energy) so they run out of energy and die. Anaerobic bacteria produce energy in other ways, so cyanide doesn't harm them. (:
Does lettuce produce oxygen?
When it is growing, yes. All plants produce oxygen.
What is the difference between the two types of respiration?
Aerobic respiration and Anaerobic Respiration. Aerobic is respiring in the presence of oxygen Anaerobic is respiring in the absence of oxygen
How oxygen is passed from a red blood cell to an actively respiring muscle?
The oxygen passes through a bloodvessel called artery to an actively respiring muscle cell.
Does anaerobic respration means respiring without oxygen?
no
What are the reactants and products in a respiring cell?
oxygen + glucose = Carbon dioxide + water
What does the body do after oxygen debt rises?
It get back to normal by respiring more frequently.
Why does plants respiring in an air tight bottle not die from a lack of oxygen?
Plants don't consume oxygen. They consume carbon dioxide.
Do living things get energy from oxygen in the air?
no they get energy from the food they consume. we use sugar that is pretty much present in everything and the oxygen we breathe in, and our cells react these together to produce energy. of course, this is aerobic respiration. some organisms of capable of respiring anaerobically and therefore have no use for oxygen at all
In what circumastances would a human start respiring anaerobically?
when a person hasn't got enough oxygen
How is breathing different from tissue respiration?
Breathing is the physical contraction of muscles such as the internal and external intercostals that draw air into and out of the lungs. Tissue respiration involves the tissues using Oxygen brought to them in the blood and respiring to produce CO2.
How cutting tree affect the rate of pollution in such ecosystem?
Trees produce oxygen. If the tree is cut down, it will no longer produce the oxygen that the ecosystem needs. So when we cut down trees, less oxygen is being produced, and the less oxygen produced, the more uneven the balance of pollution and oxygen.
Do the red blood cells pick up oxygen in the lungs?
Yes, they do. The haemoglobin in biconcave red blood cells picks up the oxygen at the lungs, and drops it off at a respiring cell.
Why is cyanide harmless to some bacteria?

In humans and other aerobic organisms, cyanide prevents cells from respiring (turning oxygen and glucose into energy) so they run out of energy and die.
