Study Notes

Anaerobic Respiration

Incomplete breakdown of glucose in anaerobic respiration results in formation of lactic acid

Muscle Cramps

Muscle cramps during vigorous muscular activities are caused by accumulation of lactic acid in muscle cells
Lactic acid is a byproduct of incomplete breakdown of glucose in anaerobic respiration

Massage Therapy

Massage with warm oil helps relieve muscle cramps by increasing blood flow to the affected area
Increased blood flow helps to remove lactic acid and other waste products from muscle cells

Energy Source and Storage

The main source of energy used in respiration is glucose
Energy released during oxidation of food is stored in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)

Aerobic Respiration

End products of aerobic respiration include carbon dioxide, water, and ATP
Complete oxidation of glucose takes place in the mitochondria during aerobic respiration

Description

Test your knowledge about the biochemical process of respiration and the production of ATP. Understand how glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen and how energy is stored in cells as ATP molecules.
