Cellular Respiration CFA

Front

What are the reactants in cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose and oxygen.

Front

Which process produces the most ATP?

Back

Aerobic respiration.

Front

What are the products of cellular respiration?

Back

Water, carbon dioxide, and ATP/energy.

Front

What is the correct equation for cellular respiration?

Back

6O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + Energy.

Front

Which organelle is responsible for cellular respiration?

Back

Mitochondria.

Front

Define cellular respiration.

Back

The process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is ATP and its role in cellular respiration?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is the energy currency of the cell, produced during cellular respiration.

Front

Explain the difference between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Back

Aerobic respiration requires oxygen and produces more ATP, while anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen and produces less ATP.

Front

What is glycolysis?

Back

The first step of cellular respiration that breaks down glucose into pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP.

Front

What is the role of the mitochondria in cellular respiration?

Back

Mitochondria are the sites where aerobic respiration occurs, producing ATP.
