- An important feature of all living cells is respiration which is related to the liberation of metabolic energy as ATP.
- Respiration is an amphibolic and exergonic cellular process.
- Respiration is of two types.
- Aerobic respiration- with the use of oxygen. Eg plants
- The equation of Aerobic Respiration
- Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy
- Anaerobic respiration- without the use of oxygen. Eg yeast
- The equation of Anaerobic Respiration
- Glucose → Alcohol + Carbon dioxide + Energy
Explanation:
- 2 molecules of ATP are obtained by the anaerobic respiration of one molecule of glucose.
- Respiration is a glucose degradation mechanism with the aid of molecular oxygen to generate ATP.
- It requires both glycolysis and phosphorylation.
- Glycolysis is the first step of glucose degradation that occurs in the absence of oxygen and transforms one glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules.
- During this cycle, 4 ATP molecules are generated and 2 ATP molecules are consumed.
So, in anaerobic respiration Alcohol, Carbon dioxide, Energy obtained.
