Depends what you mean by respiration? But generally both of these things can occur simultaneously in the body.
For cellular respiration, glucose (or other sugars)either complex or simple ingested into your body are broken down by your digestive system where there are absorbed by the villi in your gastrointestinal tract, once absorbed into the cytosol, the glucose molecule is broken down into two pyruvate molecules, these molecules are then transferred using a bridging reaction into the mitochondria, after this occurs oxidative phosphorylation acts and yields 34 ATP's per molecule of glucose.
Hope that answered your question!:)
What else can I help you with?
What is the difference between digestion of heterotrophs and saprotrophs?
Heterotrophs- digestion occurs inside the body. Saprotrophs- digestion occurs outside of body.
Which activity would supply the most oxygen to the body for digestion and respiration?
The activity that would supply the most oxygen to the body for digestion and respiration is aerobic exercise, such as running, swimming, or cycling. These activities increase your heart rate and help to improve oxygen circulation, which is beneficial for digestion and respiration.
What best describes where cellular respiration?
Aerobic respiration occurs in the mitochondria of body cells. Anaerobic respiration (glcolysis) occurs in the intracellular cytosol.
What isMade available to the body through digestion and respiration?
I only know digestion sorry: Energy :) good luck
How are digestion and cellular respiration related?
Digestion breaks down food into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body. These nutrients are then used in cellular respiration, a biochemical process that converts these nutrients into energy (ATP) that cells can use to carry out their functions. So, the nutrients obtained through digestion are essential for the cellular respiration process to occur and provide energy to the body.
The largest amount of chemical digestion occurs in your what?
Most chemical digestion takes place in the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine).
What are the body processes?
Some examples of body processes include digestion, respiration, circulation, excretion, and metabolism. These processes are necessary for the functioning and survival of the body. They involve various organs, tissues, and cells working together to maintain homeostasis and carry out essential functions.
Saliva pre-digestion through ezymes in saliva is chemical change?
The first chemical change that happens in the body in regards to digestion, the breakdown of foodstuffs, occurs in the stomach. The saliva breakdown would be a physical change.
How does the human body obtain reactants for cellular respiration?
The human body obtains reactants for cellular respiration through the digestion of food. Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins from the food we eat are broken down during digestion into glucose, fatty acids, and amino acids, which are then used as reactants in cellular respiration to produce energy in the form of ATP.
Best describes where cellular respiration occurs?
In every body cell -apex
Where in the human body is protein digested?
Protein digestion primarily occurs in the stomach and small intestine of the human body.
Where in humans does most chemical digestion occurs?
Most chemical digestion in humans occurs in the small intestine. Enzymes produced by the pancreas, liver, and small intestine work to break down carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into nutrients that can be absorbed by the body.
