What is Respiration? a process of oxidizing food to release energy inside cells

Burning of Food A demonstration of energy released from food oxygen
food (sugar) Burning water carbon dioxide energy

food(sugar) + oxygen carbon dioxide + water + energy (heat + light) does not occur in living cells because the reaction is too fast and cells would die as they become so hot

Respiration reactions are catalyzed by enzymes
main food substance which oxidized in cells is glucose enzymes C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy as it takes place in all living cells, it is called cellular respiration which is used to produce energy for cells to use

Comparison of Burning and Respiration
Similarities - both involve oxidative processes - both require the use of oxygen and food and they produce the same products of carbon dioxide and water - both reactions release energy

takes place in air or oxygen takes place in cells
Differences Burning Respiration takes place in air or oxygen takes place in cells a single-step process a series of chemical reactions no enzymes involved controlled by enzymes

Differences Burning Respiration
energy release is vigorous and not under control energy release is slower and under control energy is released in form of heat and light (a flame can result) energy is released in form of heat and an energy-rich compound

Investigation 9.1 To Demonstrate Heat Production by Respiring Animals using a Differential Air Thermometer

U-shaped capillary tube filled with coloured liquid
clip graph paper B A stoppered air-filled test tube U-shaped capillary tube filled with coloured liquid cotton wool cotton wool mouse What is the function of the clips ? Ans: To equalize the pressure on the two sides of the capillary tube.

clip graph paper B A stoppered air-filled test tube U-shaped capillary tube filled with coloured liquid cotton wool cotton wool mouse Why should the containers be wrapped in cotton wool ? Ans: It acts as an insulator to prevent heat loss.

clip graph paper B A stoppered air-filled test tube U-shaped capillary tube filled with coloured liquid cotton wool cotton wool mouse Which is preferable, a capillary tube with a wide bore or one with a narrow bore ? Ans: A capillary tube with a narrow bore is preferred than the wide one as it is more sensitive and will give better results.

clip graph paper B A stoppered air-filled test tube U-shaped capillary tube filled with coloured liquid cotton wool cotton wool mouse What happens to the levels of the coloured liquid ? Ans: The coloured liquid rises up the left arm of the U-shaped capillary tube.

clip graph paper B A stoppered air-filled test tube U-shaped capillary tube filled with coloured liquid cotton wool cotton wool mouse Why ? Ans: Because the mouse in container B carries out respiration to release heat energy which warms up the air in the test tube.

Investigation 9.2 To Demonstrate Heat Production by Germinating Seeds using Thermos Flasks

Which thermos flask shows a higher temperature
germinating seeds cotton wool thermometer B Seeds killed by boiling Which thermos flask shows a higher temperature at the end of the experiment ? Ans: Flask A showed a higher temperature at the end of the experiment.

Ans: It is because living seeds produce heat energy.
thermos flask germinating seeds cotton wool thermometer B Seeds killed by boiling Why ? Ans: It is because living seeds produce heat energy.

What is the purpose of washing the seeds with a disinfectant ?
thermos flask germinating seeds cotton wool thermometer B Seeds killed by boiling What is the purpose of washing the seeds with a disinfectant ? Ans: To kill any bacteria and fungi present on the seeds.

It is advisable not to fill the flasks completely with seeds. Why ?
thermos flask germinating seeds cotton wool thermometer B Seeds killed by boiling It is advisable not to fill the flasks completely with seeds. Why ? Ans: To provide air for the seeds to respire.

Why are the flasks supported in the upside-down position ?
thermos flask germinating seeds cotton wool thermometer B Seeds killed by boiling Why are the flasks supported in the upside-down position ?

Ans: The flasks are supported in the upside-down position because
carbon dioxide, produced during respiration of the living seeds, is a heavier gas and may escape through the cotton wool. hot air rises up, and inverting it will ensure that heat will not escape through the cotton wool. it is easier to read the thermometer as the thermos flasks are not transparent.

Uses of the Energy Released during Respiration
Human Other Animals Plants muscle contraction produce light in fireflies absorb mineral salts by active transport keep warm produce sound in some birds transport food substances absorb food by active transport produce smell in some mammals

ATP energy is mainly released as heat and ATP during respiration in cells however, during respiration, some ATP should be consumed first before other ATP can be formed the ATP consumed is used to form other ATP from ADP and phosphate groups

+ energy (from breakdown of glucose)
ADP + phosphate + energy (from breakdown of glucose) ATP ATP is a high-energy compound while ADP is a low-energy one ATP can only store energy for a short period ATP is made inside organelles, mitochondria, which is scattered in the cytoplasm of a cell

Anaerobic Respiration
respiration in human is mainly aerobic respiration as oxygen is essential when oxygen is not needed during respiration, it is called anaerobic respiration yeast and muscle cells are examples which they can respire anaerobically for a short time

Alcoholic Fermentation
without oxygen, yeast cells respire as follows: enzymes C6H12O6 2CO2 + 2C2H5OH (ethanol) + energy amount of energy released anaerobically is smaller when compared with the aerobic method

anaerobic respiration aerobic respiration
amount of energy released large small oxidation of glucose completely partly place of occurrence mitochondria cytoplasm

Industrial Use of Yeast Fermentation
alcohol produced is used for: brewing beer making wine carbon dioxide released is used for: baking bread

Lactic Acid Fermentation
extra oxygen is required for undertaking sternuous exercise people cannot supply enough oxygen to muscles even they breathe faster and deeper 

 muscle need to produce energy anaerobically by breaking down glucose into lactic acid enzymes 2C3H6O3 + energy C6H12O6 lactic acid will cause muscle fatigue and muscle cramps if they are allowed to accumulate

a large amount of oxygen is needed to break down the accumulated lactic acid into carbon dioxide and water or turn to glycogen in liver for storage so we pant after doing exercise the amount of oxygen required to get rid of lactic acid is called oxygen debt

Comparison of Aerobic and Anaerobic Respiration
Similarity Sugar is broken down to release energy ATP is made Both are controlled by enzymes

anaerobic respiration
Differences aerobic respiration anaerobic respiration essential oxygen requirement nil complete oxidation incomplete oxidation oxidation of sugar energy released large amount small amount

anaerobic respiration

Differences between Respiration and Photosynthesis
aerobic respiration photosynthesis produces carbon dioxide and water requires carbon dioxide and water energy is released energy (light) is absorbed an oxidative process a reductive process

a breaking down process a synthetic process
aerobic respiration photosynthesis a breaking down process a synthetic process occurs in all living cells at all times occurs in green plants only when light is available occurs in mitochondria occurs in chloroplasts
