ATP

Definition: Adenosine Triphosphate- The energy currency of the cell Example: ATP is an energy molecule that gives energy to cells.

ATP

Definition: Adenosine Triphosphate- The energy currency of the cell Example: ATP is basically the energy in the cell. Take for instance a biker who runs out of ATP in their muscle cells, so they can't pedal as fast.

ATP

Definition: Adenosine Triphosphate- The energy currency of the cell Example: ATP is being able to store and move chemical energy within cells

Aerobic Cellular Respiration Chemical Equation

Definition: C6H12O2 + 6O2 ------> 6CO2 + 6H20 + Energy (ATP) Example: Cellular respiration is the reaction of glucose and oxygen turning into water ,carbon dioxide and energy (ATP)

Aerobic Respiration

Definition: Converting glucose into ATP in the presence of oxygen. Location: mitochondria Example: after a few minutes of exercise the body works on giving your muscles oxygen with the help of oxygen,glucose breaks down and turns into carbon dioxide

Aerobic Respiration

Definition: Converting glucose into ATP in the presence of oxygen. Location: mitochondria Example: where food molecules or glucose are turned into energy for cells; ATP, when doing cardio exercises or anything related to oxygen

Mitochondria

Definition: Organelle found in all organisms that is the site of aerobic cellular respiration Example: Is found in all organisms and is where energy production occur.

Mitochondria

Definition: Organelle found in all organisms that is the site of aerobic cellular respiration Example: The Mitochondria is where aerobic cellular respiration and this organelle is found in every organism.

Cytoplasm

Definition: Place where cells perform anaerobic respiration. Example: Substance that fills every living cell in our bodies

Enzymes

Definition: Proteins that speed up chemical reactions Example: Enzymes help complex reactions all over the body

Enzymes

Definition: Proteins that speed up chemical reactions Example: example of Enzymes are lactase, alcohol dehydrogenase and DNA polymerase.

Definition of Cellular Respiration

Definition: The process of breaking the chemical bonds of glucose into energy. Example: Is a process that takes place in the cells of organisms to transform energy into ATP.

Cellular Respiration

Definition: The process that releases energy (ATP) by breaking down glucose. (converts food molecules (glucose) into a form usable (ATP) by the organism) Example: An example is when you exercise or in other physical work that includes energy(ATP) . which is being used up by our cells. this energy basically breaks down the food molecules from our cells. with the help of oxygen, that's getting from our lungs when we inhale .

Cellular Respiration

Definition: The process that releases energy (ATP) by breaking down glucose. (converts food molecules (glucose) into a form usable (ATP) by the organism) Example: Carbohydrates/sugars, fats, and proteins can be used as fuels in cellular respiration to make energy.

Cellular Respiration

Definition: The process that releases energy (ATP) by breaking down glucose. (converts food molecules (glucose) into a form usable (ATP) by the organism) Example: When a cell breaths in oxygen it helps you get energy from the food that you have eaten.

Alcoholic Fermentation

Definition: Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as yeast. Products are Alcohol, Carbon Dioxide, and 2 ATP. Used in making beer, bread and wine. Example: Alcoholic Fermentation is when sugar such as glucose is turned into cellular energy, producing ethanol and carbon dioxide as by-products and all this happens through a biological process

Alcoholic Fermentation

Definition: Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as yeast. Products are Alcohol, Carbon Dioxide, and 2 ATP. Used in making beer, bread and wine. Example: Some cells can use glycolysis and fermentation to keep producing ATP

Alcoholic Fermentation

Definition: Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as yeast. Products are Alcohol, Carbon Dioxide, and 2 ATP. Used in making beer, bread and wine. Example: a process in which some sugars (as glucose) are converted into alcohol and carbon dioxide by the action of various yeasts, molds, or bacteria on carbohydrate materials (as dough or sugar solutions)

Alcoholic Fermentation

Definition: Type of anaerobic respiration used by organisms such as yeast. Products are Alcohol, Carbon Dioxide, and 2 ATP. Used in making beer, bread and wine. Example: yeast makes bread rise when carbon dioxide is present

Anaerobic Respiration

Definition: Uses food but not use oxygen to produce ATP (energy) Example: alcohol fermentation , lactic acid fermentation , when eating you get energy but you don´t need oxygen

Fermentation

Definition: When oxygen is NOT present in anaerobic cellular respiration. Example: An example would be that we use fermentation for preservation in processing like yogurt and wine .

Fermentation

Definition: When oxygen is NOT present in anaerobic cellular respiration. Example: Producing energy without needing oxygen. SO basically oxygen isn't needed (sometimes). It got kicked to the curb.

Yeast

Definition: single celled fungi capable of converting sugar into alcohol and carbon dioxide Example: A fungus that is single-celled that ferments and produces alcohol and carbon dioxide
