- RESPIRATION
- AEROBIC
- Uses glucose and sugar. Releases Energy.
- The energy that is released may be used for a number of things...
- Build larger molecules from smaller ones and amino acids from sugars nitrates and other nutrients which then combine to form proteins. (In plants)
- Allow muscles to contract.
- Maintain steady body temperature.
- The energy that is released may be used for a number of things...
- Takes place in BOTH animals & plants.
- MOST of the reactions in respiration happen in the mitochondria which is in the cytoplasm of the cell.
- GLUCOSE + OXYGEN > CARBON DIOXIDE + WATER + ENERGY
- CO2 is taken by the blood to the lungs and breathed out.
- Glucose and oxygen are brought to the respiring cells by the bloodstream.
- Water passes into the blood and is lost as sweat, moist breath and urine.

- ANAEROBIC
- If there is not enough oxygen reaching your muscles then they use anaerobic respiration to obtain energy.
- It is the incomplete breakdown of glucose.
- Produces Lactic Acid.
- If muscles carry out vigorous activity for a long time they become fatigued, stop contracting and eventually hurt.
- This is caused by the build up of Lactic Acid
- Blood flowing through the muscles will remove Lactic Acid.
- HT: Lactic Acid must be oxidised into CO2 and Water. The Oxygen needed to do this is called Oxygen Debt.
- If muscles carry out vigorous activity for a long time they become fatigued, stop contracting and eventually hurt.
- GLUCOSE > ENERGY + LACTIC ACID
- Glucose from the blood stream.
- A small amount of energy is produced quickly and used for explosive activity.
- Lactic Acid accumulates in muscles makes them feel rubbery.
- If there is not enough oxygen reaching your muscles then they use anaerobic respiration to obtain energy.
