Inside the cell, the atoms that make up glucose and carbon dioxide can be rearranged to make different molecules to produce energy.
False
True or False. Air does not have weight.

If a person has asthma, what might a doctor prescribe to treat them and how would this treatment work?
An inhaler; an inhaler allows the tubes in a person's lungs to enlarge, which allows more oxygen to be breathed in.
What are the products of cellular respiration?
Carbon dioxide, water, and energy
BONUS 100 if your group remembered to include ENERGY.

What was the name of the first scientist that conducted experiments to figure out cellular respiration (the one in the video from the 1600s).
Santorius Santorius
The lungs are part of which body system?
Respiratory
Can proteins travel through the circulatory system? Why or why not.
No, proteins need to be broken down into amino acids before they can travel through the circulatory system.
What is insulin and what happens to insulin in a person with diabetes?
Insulin is a protein molecule made in special cells.
In a person with diabetes, there’s no insulin to “unlock” the cells and allow glucose to go in. Because the glucose cannot leave the blood, there is too much glucose in the blood.
How is respiration in plants different from respiration in animals?
Plants take in sunlight, C02, and water and make 02 and glucose.
BONUS 100 if your group remembered to include SUNLIGHT.
What do scientists call the energy made during cellular respiration?
Clue: it is three letters.
ATP
