What takes place during aerobic respiration?

Answer 1

The process of glycolysis (literally meaning splitting of sugar) occurs first at the start of cellular respiration.In this process glucose molecule breaks down into two molecules of pyruvic acid. This process takes place in cytosol for which oxygen is not essential.

• After then following steps take place

1. pyruvic acid oxidation
2. Krebs cycle.

The above two reactions occur within the mitochondria.

Answer 2

Glucose and oxygen react to form carbon dioxide, water, and heat.

Answer 3

During aerobic respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP (energy), carbon dioxide, and water. This process occurs in the mitochondria of cells and is the most efficient way for cells to generate energy.

Answer 4

During Cellular Respiration, sugar is broken down to CO2 and H2O, and in the process, ATP is made that can then be used for cellular work.

The overall reaction for cellular respiration: (does this reaction look familiar? Overall, it is the reverse reaction of photosynthesis, but chemically, the steps involved are very different.)

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -------------------> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ~38 ATP

Answer 5

Cellular Respiration - When the Mitochondria breaks down bacteria and creates energy out of it.

Glucose is oxidized to carbon dioxide. Released energy is stored in ATP

Answer 6

An organism uses oxygen to break down food and make ATP!

Answer 7

ugar is broken down to CO2 and H2O, and in the process, ATP is made that can then be used for cellular work. :-) Hope this helps ya!

Answer 8

During aerobic respiration, cells take in O2 and release CO2, H2O, and ATP.

Answer 9

the mitochondria break down food molecules to produce ATP ; there are three stages glycolysis the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain.

Answer 10

There are three processes. They are glycolisis, kreb cycle and electron transport chain
