|
Term
| define cellular respiration |
|
Definition
| Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds to produce ATP. |
|
|
Term
| What is the source for organic compounds to be used in cell respiration in plants, and animals? |
|
Definition
| animals = food, plants = make it themselves in photosynthesis. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition

|
|
Term
| Where does the energy used in cellular respiration come from. |
|
Definition
| the breakdown of organic compounds. |

Term
| Name three activities what cells require enrgy for. |
|
Definition
| Synthesizing large molecules (DNA, proteins), Pumping molecules across membranes by active transport, Moving things around inside the cell |
|
|
Term
| why do cells require a continual source of ATP for cell activities. |
|
Definition
| After ATP is used, it is converted to heat, which keeps an organism warm, but cannot be reused and is lost to the environment. |

Term
| In what 3 situations is anaerobic respiration used. |
|
Definition
1. When a short but rapid burst of ATP production is needed.
2. When oxygen supplies run out in respiring cells.
3. In environments that are deficient in oxygen, for example waterlogged soils. |
