I. Cellular Respiration: breaking down sugar in the presence of oxygen (aerobic).
Photosynthesis (you recall...) is the process by which CO2 and H2O are used to make sugars and starches.
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
What else can I help you with?
What gas is used by eukaryotic cells for cellular respiration?
Oxygen is the gas used by eukaryotic cells for cellular respiration. Oxygen is required for the process of oxidative phosphorylation, which is the final stage of cellular respiration where ATP is produced.
Why is external respiration vital to cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration need oxygen. This oxygen is supplied by external respiration
What molecule is used during aerobic respiration?
Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.
What organelle is used in Cellular respiration is oxygen is present?
The Mitochondria.
What gas is taken up by cellular respiration?
Oxygen is taken in by cellular respiration.
What gas is used by eukaryotic cells for cellular respiration?
Oxygen is the gas used by eukaryotic cells for cellular respiration. Oxygen is required for the process of oxidative phosphorylation, which is the final stage of cellular respiration where ATP is produced.
What are the difference cellular respiration and respiration?
Oxygen is the difference! Cellular respiration requires oxygen, while cellular fermentation does not.
What is made in photosynthesis that is used in cellular respiration?
Oxygen.
Why is oxygen necessry for cellular respiration?
Yes, Oxygen is required for cellular respiration.
Why is external respiration vital to cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration need oxygen. This oxygen is supplied by external respiration
How do you use oxygen?
Oxygen is used in cellular respiration to obtain ATP, which is used for energy.
What molecule is used during aerobic respiration?
Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.
What organelle is used in Cellular respiration is oxygen is present?
The Mitochondria.
What gas is taken up by cellular respiration?
Oxygen is taken in by cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration involves the use of carbon dioxide or oxygen?
Cellular respiration uses oxygen.
Why is cellular respiration an aerobic respiration?
Because cellular respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen.
What is the reactan used in cellular respiration?
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, and glucose
