Where does Cellular Respiration occur? |
In the mitochondria |
|
What is cellular respiration? |
A chemical process in the mitochondria that makes energy out of sugar and oxygen creating ATP. ATP is the energy molecule of life!!! :) |
|
Autotrophs |
producer, which the ecosystemsdepend upon for food. |
|
Heterotrophs |
consumers because they eatplants or other animals |
|
Exergonic reactions |
Reactants have more energythan the products. Example: Cellular respiration:c6h1206 + o2 === 6c02 +6h20+32 ATP |
|
Endergonic |
Products have more energythan the reactants. Therefore, energy needs to be added. EX: Cellular RespirationPhotosynthesis |
|
Two types of Cellularrespiration |
Aerobic & Anerobic |
|
Aerobic |
Involving or occurring in thepresence of oxygen |
|
Anaerobic |
Occurring in the absence of oxygen |
|
Enzymes |
Biological catalyst that increase therate of the reaction. |
|
OIL V. RIG |
OIL - oxidation is losing electronRIG - respiration is gaining e- |
