ATP are energy currency of cells, they provide energy for a particular reaction by breaking down into ADP+inorganic phosphate

Does anaerobic cellular fermentation use the same final electron acceptors as aerobic respiration?

No, because the electron acceptor is what cates the electrons as the leave the electron transport chain, which is oxygen in aerobic respiration. Since aerobic respiration uses oxygen, and anaerobic fermentation is abest of oxygen, anaerobic fermentation cannot possibly use oxygen as respiration does.


What type of cellular respiration occurs with oxygen?

Aerobic respiration is the type of cellular respiration that requires oxygen. This process involves the release of glucose for energy.Aerobic respiration requires oxygen to be present because it is the final electron acceptor at the end of the electron transport chain. If it is not present, then the electron can not go through the chain and fermentation will cycle instead. Fermentation is much more inefficient in producing ATP (a differenence of 32 ATP).


Why is ATP production during cellular respiration characterized as indirect?

ATP is not produced directly by the ETC but instead via the proton gradient generated during electron transport through the ETC.


Cellular respiration does not produce what?

GlucoseIt mainly produce ATPs. Water and CO2 are bi products


Under what conditions does a use fermentation instead of cellular respiration?

low oxygen


Under what condition does a cell Use fermentation instead of cellular respiration?

low oxygen


Why do organisms cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration is one of the processes that cells perform. Organisms do not perform this process. Instead they perform respiration. Cells use cellular respiration to obtain one of the three sources needed for them to live- oxygen. Without this process, cells would not be able to perform other functions.


Do humans carry both cellular respiration and photosynthesis?

No, humans do not carry out photosynthesis. Instead, humans rely on cellular respiration to convert nutrients into energy. Photosynthesis is a process unique to plants, algae, and some bacteria, where they convert sunlight into energy.


What does cellular respiration do to oxygen levels?

glucose would go through glycolysis and in the absence of oxygen, pyruvate would turn into lactic acid since there would be no oxygen to collect the excess hydrogens/ or if yeast is involved, alchol would be produced


What are these is not a product cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration primarily produces carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (adenosine triphosphate) as its main products. It does not produce glucose, as glucose is consumed during the process to generate energy. Additionally, substances like oxygen are not produced; instead, they are utilized in the process. Thus, glucose and oxygen are not products of cellular respiration.


What condition's does a cell use fermentation instead of cellular respiration?

low oxygen


Is an anaerobic bacterium an organism that will carry out cellular respiration?

Yes, in a sense Cellular respiration is just another term for METABOLISM - The Process of Life. Metabolism will use either of the Respiratory Processes - aerobic or anaerobic {with or without Oxygen} - to make the mandatory energy molecule Atp. Photosynthesis is an aerobic way to provide energy, and Chemosynthesis is the anaerobic way - using, say H2S as the electron donor {instead of say CH4} to produce energy [via the production of Atp] to provide Glucose for Respiration. [It would appear that bacteria at deep-sea-thermal-vents use sulfur to make glucose for Standard Respiration].
