What else can I help you with?
What materials do mitochondria consume?
Glucose is the fuel. Oxygen is also needed
Is respiration the metabolism of glucose when oxygen is present?
yes, cellular respiration
How are we dependent on plants?
Plants make oxygen and energy(glucose) which we consume when we eat plants or animals that ate plants.
Can cellular respiration and fermentation be used to release energy?
No. Either cellular repsiration or fermentation can be used to release energy depending on the presence or absense of oxygen. When oxygen is present, it acts as the terminal electron acceptor in cellular repritation, followed by the release of energy When there is no oxygen present, other organic molecules (like lactic acid) accept the terninal electron and energy is generated
Why does plants respiring in an air tight bottle not die from a lack of oxygen?
Plants can switch to anaerobic respiration when there is a lack of oxygen. During this process, they can break down glucose without oxygen, although it is less efficient. Additionally, the plant may be able to produce a small amount of oxygen through photosynthesis that can sustain minimal respiration needs.
What materials do mitochondria consume?
Glucose is the fuel. Oxygen is also needed
Which process in eukaryotic cells will proceed normally whether oxygen is present or absent?
Glycolysis is a metabolic process in eukaryotic cells that can proceed normally in the absence of oxygen. It converts glucose into pyruvate, producing ATP as an energy source for the cell.
Is respiration the metabolism of glucose when oxygen is present?
yes, cellular respiration
Which process in eukaryotic cells will proceed normally whether oxygen (O2) is present or absen?
Glycolysis is a process in eukaryotic cells that will proceed normally whether oxygen is present or absent. Glycolysis breaks down glucose to produce ATP, the cell's energy currency, and occurs in the cytoplasm. It does not require oxygen and is the first step in both aerobic and anaerobic respiration pathways.
What is the metabolism of the glucose when oxygen is present called?
It's called "Aerobic Metabolism"
What is the metabolism of glucose when oxygen is present is called?
It's called "Aerobic Metabolism"
Is there oxygen in a vacuum?
There is no oxygen present in a vacuum since a vacuum is an environment with very low pressure where gases, including oxygen, are effectively absent.
How are we dependent on plants?
Plants make oxygen and energy(glucose) which we consume when we eat plants or animals that ate plants.
Can cellular respiration and fermentation be used to release energy?
No. Either cellular repsiration or fermentation can be used to release energy depending on the presence or absense of oxygen.

Is hydrogen in glucose?
Yes, there is is hydrogen in glucose. Glucose is an example of a hydrocarbon, a family of biomolecules made up of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen.
What is the element in glucose?
glucose is a carbohydrate. it is made up of carbon chain and and an aldehyde group attached to the end carbon. the other carbons have hydrowyl groups attached to themcarbon, hydrogen, oxygen
What materials do the mitochondria consume?
Main raw material is glucose.Also oxygen is needed
