Though cellular respiration shares the same overall chemical equation as the combustion of glucose in oxygen, there have to be key differences between the two processes or we'd all be burning inside our cells.
The main difference, then, is that for cellular respiration, the energy release from glucose is performed in a very controlled manner using enzymes to both lower the activation energy of the reaction steps so that they can happen at body temperature and to spread out the energy release into small steps over a relatively long period of time. For combustion, the initial activation energy is high (a high temperature needed to start the burning, as seen by the high temperature needed for sugars to burn while cooking), and the energy release is very rapid, with all the chemical energy stored in the bonds released near-instantaneously, providing very large amounts of energy in a short period of time.
Respiration is breathing Combustion is burning
combustion is a burning of carbohydrate molecule in the presence of oxygen in blood while respiration is process of breathing through which the body and blood gets oxygen.
Respiration uses oxygen, fermentation doesn't.
Photosynthesis makes glucose molecules, but cellular respiration breaks them down.
Cellular respiration uses one molecule of glucose to produce what?
That it have cell
the similarities between cellular respiration and photosynthesis is that they both follow the same basic pattern.The only differences are that photosynthesis gets the energy from sunlight, consumes carbondioxide, and produces oxygen, while cellular respiration consumes oxygen and water, and produces carbon dioxide and water.
Combustion is burning.it releases energy rapidly providing large amounts of energy in a short time. Respiration is breathing and oxidation. Energy is released in a controlled way.
Respiration is breathing Combustion is burning
Aerobic means with oxygen/air. Anaerobic means without oxygen/air.
Question ispartiallywrong as fermentation is part of cellular respiration, question should be about similarities and differences in aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Cellular respiration is comprised of 3 stages , 1 glycolysis , 2 Krebs cycle and 3 electron transport chain .Fermentation is approximately similar to glycolysis except last step .
respiration is the break down of food substances mainly glucose in the prsence of oxygen, while burning is usually refered to combustion
The external inertial respiration refers to breathing, while the cellular respiration refers to respiration between the cells.
cellular respiration uses oxygen but fermentation does not use oxygen
Aerobic means with oxygen/air. Anaerobic means without oxygen/air.
Five basic differences between respiration fermentation?
combustion is a burning of carbohydrate molecule in the presence of oxygen in blood while respiration is process of breathing through which the body and blood gets oxygen.
