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
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.
Cellular respiration need oxygen. This oxygen is supplied by external respiration
Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.
The Mitochondria.
Oxygen is taken in by cellular respiration.

Oxygen is the difference! Cellular respiration requires oxygen, while cellular fermentation does not.
Oxygen.
Yes, Oxygen is required for cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration need oxygen. This oxygen is supplied by external respiration
Oxygen is used in cellular respiration to obtain ATP, which is used for energy.
Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.
The Mitochondria.
Oxygen is taken in by cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration uses oxygen.
Because cellular respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen.
Oxygen, carbon dioxide, and glucose
