Cellular respiration
The organelle where two stages of cellular respiration take place in Eukaryotes
Mitochondria
This type of fermentation produces lactic acid as a byproduct.
Lactic acid fermentation
This stage of cellular respiration requires the presence of oxygen
Oxygen is a byproduct of cellular respiration
False!
Humans cells fall under this broad category of cells.
Eukaryotic Animal Cells
Cellular respiration requires oxygen, making it this type of process.
Aerobic
Fermentation occurs without the presence of oxygen, making it this kind of process.
Anaerobic
Why do living things need food to survive?
Energy! More specifically, the glucose in the food we eat is used for the cell to preform cellular respiration.
Plant cells can perform cellular respiration
True!
What product of alcoholic fermentation causes bread to rise?
carbon dioxide
Besides oxygen, which other molecule is needed as an input for cellular respiration?
Glucose (sugar)
This type of fermentation produces ethanol, an alcoholic compound, as a byproduct.
Alcoholic fermentation
This molecule is produced by cellular respiration and fermentation and is a form of potential energy for cells to use.
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)
Plant cells can perform fermentation
True!
This molecule is responsible for carrying genetic information.
DNA
True or false, Prokaryotic cells perform cellular respiration.
True
The location in the cell where fermentation takes place.
The cytoplasm
Between what two stages does pyruvate transform to acetyl CoA?
Cheese is made by a process called alcoholic fermentation.
False!
Vacuole
BONUS: Which stage of cellular respiration involves the splitting of a glucose molecule into two molecules called pyruvate?
True or false, Eukaryotic cells can do alcoholic fermentation.
True!
BONUS: Which part of the ATP molecule is broken off to release a burst of energy?
The 3rd phosphate group.
The carbon dioxide humans breathe out is from the process of cellular respiration.
True
What is the largest human organ?
