Cells harvest energy from food molecules by what?
when oxygen is present pyruvant and NADH are used to make a large amount of ATP. this process is called aerobic respiration.
How anaerobic respiration benefits the baking industry?
In aerobic respiration, due to the lack of oxygen, the glucose isn't fully metabolized which causes the build up of lactic acid. In the production of cheese certain bacteria convert lactose into lactic acid, the lactic acid is important in curdling the milk and breaking down the fats and proteins to make the cheese.
During what process do gases make up the solution you breath?
It is in respiration that we find a solution or mixture of gases that we breathe in or out.
In the process of photosynthesis plants use the energy in Blank to make food?
They rely on the process of respiration
Why rubbing your hands make you feel warmer?
The friction generated by your hands creates heat.
What substance related to cell respiration might make your muscles burn or cramp?
anaerobic respiration
Do cells make ethanol as a waste of cellular respiration?
No, ethanol is a byproduct of fermentation...not aerobic or anaerobic respiration
What would make and an organism perform anaerobic respiration?
An organism would perform anaerobic respiration when oxygen is not available or in limited supply. Anaerobic respiration allows organisms to continue generating ATP in the absence of oxygen by using alternative electron acceptors, such as nitrate or sulfate. One disadvantage of anaerobic respiration is that it is less efficient than aerobic respiration and can produce byproducts like lactic acid or ethanol.
What is the use of anaerobic respiration in yeast?
it make the bread rise up in the oven
How is anaerobic respiration used to make alcohol?
In anaerobic respiration, yeast cells convert sugars into ethanol and carbon dioxide. This process, known as fermentation, is commonly used in the production of alcoholic beverages like beer and wine. The lack of oxygen forces the yeast to produce energy through anaerobic respiration, leading to the formation of alcohol as a byproduct.
What two types of yeast respiration is there?
Aerobic (used to make bread) and anaerobic (used to make alcohol).
Which process is more efficient aerobic or anaerobic respiration?
Aerobic because it doesn't require Oxygen to make unlike anaerobic respiration. Thus making it far more efficient even though it causes cramps.
What is the importance of anaerobic respiration?
Baking of bread(releasing of co2 to make bread rise) Production of alocohol
How much ATP does anaerobic respiration make?
Anaerobic respiration produces a net of 2 ATP molecules per glucose molecule through the process of glycolysis.
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].
Why do erythrocytes only perform anaerobic respiration?
Erythrocytes (red blood cells) have no cellular organelles - they have pushed all of them out to make more room for hemoglobin to carry oxygen. Therefore, the RBC must rely on anaerobic respiration for its energy needs because it gave up the mitochondria that would have performed aerobic respiration.
Can cells that carry on aerobic respiration operate anaerobically if needed?
Cells can usually make up for a lack of oxygen to produce energy with anaerobic respiration. For example, when doing heavy physical exercise like lifting weights (i.e. anaerobic exercise), the amount of energy required of the muscle cells exceeds the amount the cells are able to make through aerobic respiration given the amount of oxygen they get. So they compensate by using anaerobic respiration (glycolysis and fermentation of pyruvic acid) to produce that extra ATP. However, the byproduct of this anaerobic respiration, lactic acid, accumulates in the cells and body and is toxic. It has to be processed and broken down by the liver (when it accumulates in the muscles, for example, it causes muscle aches after exercise). So most animal cells cannot survive indefinitely solely on anaerobic respiration, but can supplement their energy generation with it if necessary.
