- Respiration
- Anaerobic Respiration- "without oxygen"
- Glucose-> lactic acid (+energy)
- Incomplete breakdown
of glucose
- Much less energy is released
- Oxygen debt
- Oxygen is needed to oxides the lactic acid into carbon dioxide and water
- Muscle fatigue can be caused by a build up of lactic acid
- Blood flowing through the muscles removes the lactic acid.
- Aerobic Respiration- "with oxygen"
- Glucose+ oxygen -> carbon dioxide + water (+energy)
- Inside mitochondria
- Energy from respiration used for:
- Building larger molecules from smaller ons
- Movement in animals
- Maintaining body temperature in mammals and birds
- Turn sugars, nitrates and nutrients into amino acids in plants
- Controlled by enzymes
- During exercise:
- Heart rate increases
- Increases blood flow- supply of sugar and
oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide and waste products
- Rate and depth of breathing increases
- Increases blood flow- supply of sugar and
oxygen and removal of carbon dioxide and waste products
- Rate and depth of breathing increases
- Muscles store glucose as glycogen, which can then be converted back to glucose for use during exercise.
- Heart rate increases
- Anaerobic Respiration- "without oxygen"
