What is cellular respiration?

Back

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is the main purpose of cellular respiration?

Back

The main purpose of cellular respiration is to produce ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell.

Front

What are the main reactants of cellular respiration?

Back

The main reactants of cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen.

Front

What are the main products of cellular respiration?

Back

The main products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP.

Front

How does cellular respiration differ from photosynthesis?

Back

Cellular respiration releases energy by breaking down glucose, while photosynthesis stores energy by converting solar energy into glucose.

Front

What role does glucose play in cellular respiration?

Back

Glucose serves as the primary fuel for cellular respiration, providing the energy needed to produce ATP.

Front

What is ATP?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a molecule that stores and transfers energy within cells.

Front

What is the equation for cellular respiration?

Back

The equation for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP.

Front

What is the relationship between photosynthesis and cellular respiration?

Back

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, which are then used in cellular respiration to produce energy.

Front

What is anaerobic respiration?

Back

Anaerobic respiration is a type of cellular respiration that occurs without oxygen, producing less energy and resulting in byproducts like lactic acid or ethanol.
