Cheyne-Stokes respiration

This lab is based on measuring cellular respiration and fermentation. Cellular respiration can be expresses to as a method of breaking down organic molecules to release their stored energy. (Upadhyaya, 2017). Throughout cellular respiration there are two main phases which are glycolysis and the citric acid cycle. Glycolysis produces two 3-carbon molecules of pyruvate and 2 molecules of ATP. In the citric acid cycle pyruvate loses one of its three carbons and then becomes attached to coenzyme A…

Anaerobic alactic conditioning is a form of training primarily utilizing ATP as the body's source of energy. The “anaerobic” aspect means it does not require oxygen and the “alactic” component means it does not result in the accumulation of lactic acid. One example of someone who uses the alactic system is Usain Bolt The lactacid system ATP supplies in the body are very limited and there is often only enough energy to supply an explosive contraction such as a sprint start. The lactacid system…

a very important process that is called Cellular Respiration. Cellular Respiration is the process that creates energy for your body to function. Without the process of Cellular Respiration, our bodies wouldn't be able to function. We wouldn't make any energy. We couldn't run, play sports, or walk. Humans, or any other living thing in the world wouldn’t be able to survive without this process. The first very important step in Cellular Respiration is called glycolysis. Glycolysis happens in the…

First off, before we relate anything, we need to know what ATP is. ATP is the body’s source of energy, it is produced naturally by the body and is essential for all actions by the body also actions that take place inside the body. ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is a very unstable bond so when it is hydrolysed (the chemical breakdown of a compound due to reaction with water) a great amount of energy is released. So in conclusion everything you do, every action that take place requires Atp…

cellular respiration based on the available fuel source in the different seeds. We know that aerobic respiration requires oxygen gas and an organic molecule, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The goal of cellular respiration is to harvest ATP. However, the carbon dioxide can be measured using a gas sensor. Since we know that more reactants generally equals more products, more organic molecules should result in more carbon dioxide, thus, increasing the rate of cellular respiration.…

The rate of respiration of yeast, using two saccharides and an amino acid, in combination with the cofactor of magnesium, was determined using respirometers. A positive control sample of yeast and water, and a negative control sample of glucose, sodium fluoride and yeast were also employed. After seventy five minutes, the sample containing glucose, magnesium and yeast showed a markedly higher production of CO2 than the other samples. This result supported the hypothesis that glucose is the…

Florida Beaches Home Vibrio vulnificus In the months of April and May, eight Vibrio vulnificus cases were reported with two of them resulting in death this year (Galimberti). Vibrio vulnificus is a flesh-eating bacteria that thrives in areas of warm water, lakes, rivers, and oceans. Florida beaches tend to be hot during the summer and autumn which makes Florida beaches a great place for Vibrio vulnificus to live in. So what exactly is Vibrio vulnificus, how is it transmitted, what are the…

Cellular respiration is the process of “breaking down organic molecules to release their stored energy” usually using glucose, and convert it into ATP through an aerobic process. (Upadhyay 2018) Cellular fermentation is also a part of cellular respiration, but it is an anaerobic process which means it does not require oxygen. There are two discussed types of fermentation: Alcohol Fermentation in which “glycolysis converts glucose in to pyruvate, producing NADH and FADH2, then pyruvate is broken…

1. Flavin monooxygenase (FMO) and cytochrome P450 (CYP450) are both enzymes that are involved in phase I metabolism. They are classified as microsomal enzymes that require oxygen and NADPH. These enzymes are involved in the conversion of lipophilic compounds to more hydrophilic metabolites by adding molecular oxygen, which ensures rapid excretion. There are genetic variants with both classes of enzymes, which may contribute to interindividual variability in drug response. Some of the…

The Effect of Citric Acid on Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration Jacqueline Martinez, Shayla Sanders, Yewande Ifanse, Dyamante Wigenton, Rachelle Hutchinson Biology 1441_045; TA Manish, October 14, 2014 Citric Acid originates from lemons or other fruits in which it is sour in taste. It is said that photosynthesis consumes CO2 when aerobic respiration also known as cellular respiration produces it. Also it states that whenever more carbon dioxide is produced the more acidic the water…
