What happens to aerobic and anaerobic enzymes?

Aerobic enzymes function in the presence of oxygen to catalyze reactions involved in aerobic respiration, while anaerobic enzymes function in the absence of oxygen or low oxygen conditions. Aerobic enzymes support the breakdown of glucose to produce ATP efficiently through the electron transport chain, while anaerobic enzymes help produce ATP through processes like fermentation in the absence of oxygen.


What is a catalyst in aerobic respiration?

Respiration involves so many types of enzymes. Enzymes are the biological catalysts


How are aerobic enzymes increased?

By just getting the job done you know.


What contains enzymes used for aerobic metabolism in the cell?

Enzymes used for aerobic metabolism in the cell are contained within the mitochondria. These organelles are the main sites for the production of ATP through processes like the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondria have their own DNA and ribosomes to facilitate the synthesis of proteins required for aerobic metabolism.


What organelle processes oxidase enzymes?

They are in peroxisomes.They engage in detoxifying.


Which of the following includes two requirements that are needed for photosynthesis and aerobic respiration?

electron charge transport system and regulatung enzymes


What are the three things required in aerobic respiration beside oxygen?

The three things required for aerobic respiration, besides oxygen, are glucose (or another fuel source), enzymes to catalyze the reactions, and the presence of mitochondria where the process occurs.


Can enzymes respire?

Since enzymes, being proteins, do not fit the definition of living organisms, they do not respire. That having been said, enzymes do indeed play a vital role in the process of both aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration. They are not alive and so do not respire, but respiration could not occur without their help.


What two enzymes are present in obligate aerobes but lacking in obligate anaerobes?

Catalase and superoxide dismutase are two enzymes that are present in obligate aerobes but lacking in obligate anaerobes. These enzymes help in breaking down toxic reactive oxygen species that are produced during aerobic respiration.


What are the materials needed in aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration?

In aerobic respiration, the materials needed are glucose (or other organic molecules), oxygen, and enzymes to catalyze the reaction. In anaerobic respiration, the materials needed are glucose (or other organic molecules) and enzymes to catalyze the reaction. Oxygen is not required for anaerobic respiration, and different types of anaerobic pathways may involve different materials such as nitrate or sulfate.


Is aerobic respiration similar to burning glucose?

Yes, aerobic respiration is a process that involves breaking down glucose to produce energy. This process occurs in the presence of oxygen, and similar to burning glucose, it releases carbon dioxide and water as byproducts.


What enzymes are involved in breaking down toxic products from aerobic respiration?

In aerobic respiration glucose is broken down to release energy and the only toxic products formed are carbon dioxide CO2 and apart from that excess water and it is not difficult to get rid of these things.This is called excretion (removal of toxic waste products of metabolism.)
