Aerobic glucose breakdown
-breakdown products are carbon dioxide and water -supplies more ATP than the other type of glucose breakdown -occurs when plenty of oxygen is available in the muscle
Anaerobic glucose breakdown
-glucose degrades into pyruvate under these conditions -provides most of the energy needed fro events that require a quick burst of energy, ranging from about 30 seconds to 2 minutes -occurs when oxygen supply in the muscle is limited -produces relatively small amounts of ATP
steps of aerobic respiration
-glucose is degraded to form pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP -pyruvate moves from cytoplasm into mitochondria -under aerobic conditions, pyruvate is completely degraded, forming CO2, H2O, and ATP -CO2 is exhaled and H2O helps maintain body water volume
