Glucose
What is food?
The full word for ATP.
What is Adenosine Tri-Phosphate?
The nickname for the Mitochondria, or its job in the cell.
What is powerhouse?
The location of tiny alveoli helping air enter the blood and carbon dioxide leave the blood
What are the lungs?
This is what caused the blue chemical to turn green, allowing us to see how much carbon dioxide was entering the water.
This chemical helps glucose enter the cell.
What is insulin?
The acronym for Adenosine Di-Phosphate before the 3rd phosphate is added.
What is ADP?
The "C" nickname for ATP's purpose because after the mitochondria makes it, the ATP can be used anywhere in the cell to do anything.
What is currency?
Alveoli is a tiny pocket of air and sounds like these tiny pockets of meat in noodles.
What is ravioli?
This gas from our breath becomes acidic when entering water, turning Bromothymol Blue into green.
What is carbon dioxide?
Oxygen goes here to enter the lungs, food goes here to enter the stomach and eventually become glucose.
What is the mouth?
This atom is added to ADP during the Kreb's Cycle to become ATP.
What is phosphate?
The mitochondria is responsible for converting ADP into this useful molecule of stored energy.
What is ATP?
Before learning about alveoli, children think lungs are big open sacs like these?
What are balloons?
The missing ingredient for respiration we never mentioned when we learned how glucose and carbon dioxide are connected in a cell
What is oxygen?
This chemical tells the liver to convert the stored glycogen back into glucose to solve a low blood sugar.
What is glucagon?
The name of the cycle, or chemical reaction, that uses oxygen and glucose to make ATP.
What is the Kreb's Cycle?
This type of activity will trigger the body to make more mitochondria in muscle cells to increase the production of ATP
What is exercise?
What are millions?
The tiny cells we fed sugar to confirm glucose was related to the creation of carbon dioxide in our bodies.
What is yeast?
C6H1206
What is glucose?
Inside the folds of this tiny organelle the Kreb's Cycle turns ADP into ATP.
What is the mitochondria?
This type of respiration uses oxygen to make ATP inside the mitochondria.
What is Aerobic?
The alveoli walls are so thin oxygen easily goes into and carbon dioxide easily comes out of this.
What is blood?
The unit of measurement used to determine more carbon dioxide comes out of the same amount of breath after exercise.
What are seconds?
