IGCSE Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration

What is the role of oxygen debt in the body?

• Oxygen debt is used to store excess oxygen in the lungs.

• Oxygen debt helps convert lactic acid back to glucose in the liver after intense exercise.

• Oxygen debt is responsible for muscle fatigue during exercise.

• Oxygen debt is a result of dehydration in the body.

Explain the concept of lactic acid in relation to anaerobic respiration.

• Lactic acid is produced as a byproduct of anaerobic respiration

• Lactic acid is only found in plant cells

• Lactic acid is a product of aerobic respiration

• Lactic acid is produced during photosynthesis

Differentiate between anaerobic respiration and aerobic respiration.

• Anaerobic respiration requires oxygen, while aerobic respiration does not require oxygen.

• Anaerobic respiration releases more energy than aerobic respiration.

• Anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen, while aerobic respiration requires oxygen.

• Aerobic respiration releases more energy than anaerobic respiration

• Aerobic respiration releases carbon dioxide and water while anaerobic respiration releases lactic acid

How does anaerobic respiration in yeast contribute to bread making?

• Yeast anaerobic respiration produces carbon dioxide gas that causes the dough to rise and create a fluffy texture in bread.

• Yeast anaerobic respiration creates a sour taste in the bread.

• Yeast anaerobic respiration produces heat that bakes the bread faster.

• Yeast anaerobic respiration leads to the bread having a longer shelf life.

Discuss the impact of lactic acid build-up in muscles during exercise.

• Lactic acid build-up in muscles during exercise causes muscle fatigue and soreness.

• Lactic acid build-up in muscles during exercise is caused by excessive oxygen intake.

• Lactic acid build-up in muscles during exercise is a sign of dehydration.

• Lactic acid build-up in muscles during exercise is beneficial for muscle growth.
