CELLULAR RESPIRATION Sahana Kanabar
The Difference between cellular respiration and breathing • Although they are part of the same process, breathing is the mechanical action done by the body to draw air inside. Breathing involves the lungs, bronchial tube and Alveoli. • Cellular respiration is a chemical process that releases energy for the body’s use. The word equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy. Put simply, Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy. Some of this takes place in the mitochondria of each cell.
Part of the cellular respiration take part here Respiratory System
The Start • The food we eat contains glucose, when it is broken down in our cells, it releases energy. • We take oxygen into our bodies through breathing, oxygen breaks down glucose.
Inside the cells • Food, that comes in the form of glucose, gets broken down in the cells by oxygen. • A certain amount of energy get released during the process that the cell is able to use for it’s activities. • The biochemical energy is used to fuel many metabolic processes and transportation of molecules across membranes.
Becoming available to cells • ATP is a molecule in the cell, used for the storage and transport of energy. • As food is broken down molecularly, ATP forms. • As phosphate inside the ATP breaks down, energy is released for endergonicreactions. endergonic |ˌendərˈgänik|adjective, Biochemistry (of a metabolic or chemical process) accompanied by or requiring the absorption of energy, the products being of greater free energy than the reactants. The opposite of exergonic .
Substances leaving • Using conservation of mass, the oxygen and glucose that entered into the cells, get turned into water and carbon dioxide. • The carbon dioxide leaves the body through exhaling. • Water can be used around the body or released by the body.
