Study Notes
Aerobic Respiration
- Aerobic respiration occurs in plants, animals, and microbes.
- Word equation: glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water (+energy).
- Symbol equation: C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ = 6CO₂ + 6H₂O (+energy).
Anaerobic Respiration in Humans
- Anaerobic respiration occurs when oxygen is insufficient.
- Word equation: glucose = lactic acid (+energy).
- Lactic acid can cause muscle fatigue during intense exercise.
Anaerobic Respiration in Plants and Microbes
- Different products are formed in anaerobic respiration for plants and some microbes.
- Word equation: glucose = ethanol + carbon dioxide (+energy).
- This process is utilized in brewing and baking industries.
Fermentation
- Scientific term for anaerobic respiration in microbes.
- Fermentation is crucial for producing alcoholic beverages and bread.
