#1
Front (Question)

How does the process of respiration produce ATP in living organisms

Back (Answer)

the breakdown of glucose into carbon dioxide and water, with the release of energy that is used to produce ATP

#2
Front (Question)

What does ATP do

Back (Answer)

Provide energy for the cells

#3
Front (Question)

What are the differences between aerobic and anaeroebic respiration

Back (Answer)

Aerobic - Uses oxygen, happens slower, releases more energy (ATP) Anaerobic - Doesn’t use oxygen, Happens quicker, releases less energy (ATP)

#4
Front (Question)

What is the word equation and balanced equation for aerobic respiration in living organisms

Back (Answer)

Glucose + Oxygen ———-> carbon dioxide + water + energy C6H12O6 + 6O2 —-> 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy(ATP)

#5
Front (Question)

What is the word equation for anaerobic respiration in animals and plants

Back (Answer)

Glucose —> ethanol + carbon dioxide + energy (C2H5OH) (2ATP)

#6
Front (Question)

Practical: Investigate the evolution of carbon dioxide and hat from respiring seeds or other suitable living organisms
