- Respiration
- respiration and burning of fossil fuels are similar chemical processes...
- both release energy from fuel
- they're exothermic
- both produce waste products
- both require oxygen
- both require fuel
- both release energy from fuel
- the amount of energy released depends on the conditions where the chemical reaction takes place...
- coal burns easier if there is plenty of oxygen
- if no oxygen is present...
- anaerobic respiration
- 2 ATP
- found in the cytoplasm
- glucose ? lactic acid (+energy)
- energy available for use in cells
- anaerobic respiration
- if oxygen is present...
- aerobic respiration
- 38 ATP
- found in the mitochondria
- glucose + oxygen ? carbon dioxide + water (+energy)
- energy available for use in cells
- aerobic respiration
- respiration and burning of fossil fuels are similar chemical processes...
