How does aerobic respiration happen?

Answer 1

To produce the maximum amount of ATP (energy) your body can. Its either anaerobic (no oxygen) or aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration produces less ATP than aerobic due to lack of oxygen, thus the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain can not continue as oxygen is needed.

Answer 2

aerobic means air

respiration means the process that releases energy from food

so aerobic respiration means a series of reactions where energy is released from glucose (from our food) which reacts with oxygen (that we breath in) to make carbon dioxide (that we breath out) , water (that we breath out as water vapor),

and energy!

glucose + oxygen > carbon dioxide + water (+energy)

Answer 3

If you mean "Where does aerobic respiration?": In eukaryotic cells aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria.

If you mean "Why does aerobic respiration takes place?": Without oxygen, a cell can only achieve a net gain of 2ATP for every glucose molecule. With oxygen, a eukaryotic cell can achieve a theoretical net gain of 32-38ATP for every glucose molecule.

Answer 4

Aerobic respiration is a process that takes place in the presence of oxygen. It starts with glycolysis in the cytoplasm, followed by the Krebs cycle in the mitochondria, and then the electron transport chain. Through these steps, glucose is broken down to produce ATP, which is the cell's main source of energy. Carbon dioxide and water are also produced as byproducts.

Answer 5

Mitochondria, which is an organelle of the cell
In animal cells, in an organelle called the mitochondria.
on the surface of the inner mitochondrial matrix.

Answer 6

it's when you start to exersise. your body makes energy using oxygen. it makes 33% of energy for each glucose molecule your body intakes
