Cellular respiration
what makes something an aerobic process?
it needs oxygen to take place
TRUE OR FALSE: A food chain shows how energy and matter flow from consumers to producers
FALSE
organisms use chemical energy instead of light energy to make energy-storing carbon based molecules
Chemosynthesis
The final electron acceptor of the end of cellular respiration is
Oxygen
This process does NOT require oxygen but still produces ATP.
Fermentation
