In cellular respiration, glucose is broken down to produce ATP, carbon dioxide, and water, not glucose and oxygen. Oxygen is consumed during cellular respiration to help produce ATP. The amount of glucose and oxygen produced in a human is not a measurable output since they are utilized within the body for energy production.
Oxygen makes up about 65% of the human body by mass.
Yes, oxygen is required for the complete breakdown of glucose through a process called cellular respiration. This process occurs in the mitochondria of cells and involves the conversion of glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (energy). Without oxygen, the cell cannot efficiently generate energy from glucose.
Photosynthesis, which is the process by which plants and other organisms convert carbon dioxide and sunlight into oxygen and glucose, is responsible for producing much of the oxygen in Earth's atmosphere. This process is crucial in maintaining the balance of gases in the atmosphere and supporting life on our planet.
On average, the human body is composed of about 65% oxygen by mass, primarily in the form of water (H2O) and other organic molecules. This oxygen is essential for cellular respiration, which is the process by which cells generate energy.
About 50-80% of the Earth's oxygen comes from algae, with the majority being produced by phytoplankton in the oceans. Algae are vital for oxygen production through photosynthesis, which converts carbon dioxide into oxygen as a byproduct.
About 60% of our oxygen is produced by phytoplakton.
a lot of oxygen! that's where most of it comes from!
about 36 to 38 ATP molecules are produced for every glucose molecule.
When oxygen is present, yeast cells undergo aerobic respiration, which is a more efficient process that yields more ATP per glucose molecule. This results in a slower consumption rate of glucose compared to anaerobic respiration where glucose is broken down more quickly in the absence of oxygen to produce energy.
The brain doesn't have the capacity to store oxygen or glucose. This is the reason why one feels dizzy on getting up suddenly.
Oxygen makes up about 65% of the human body by mass.
Per glucose 38 can be produced. It is by aerobic resppiration
If there is no oxygen present, cells can still produce ATP through anaerobic metabolism, specifically through glycolysis. In glycolysis, one molecule of glucose produces a net of 2 ATP molecules. This is the only way for cells to produce ATP in the absence of oxygen.
The human body needs approximately 550 liters of oxygen per day to sustain normal function. This oxygen is utilized in various physiological processes including respiration, metabolism, and energy production.
During aerobic respiration, one molecule of glucose can produce up to 38 molecules of ATP. In contrast, during anaerobic respiration (such as fermentation), only 2 molecules of ATP are produced per molecule of glucose.
In aerobic respiration, 36 or 38 molecules of ATP per molecule of glucose, depending on how many are gained through the electron transfer system.In anaerobic respiration 2 molecules of ATP per molecule of glucose, though higher yields can occur in higher temperatures (as much as 9 ATP molecules per molecule of glucose)
