  1. Anaerobic Respirationin animals and Plants www.assignmentpoint.com

  2. Summary of ATP production • Stage 1 and 2 release all the chemical energy in one molecule of glucose to make a total of 38ATP molecules. 2 molecules ATP from glucose  pyruvic acid 36 molecules ATP from pyruvic acid  carbon- dioxide +water Total 38 molecules ATP www.assignmentpoint.com

  3. Anaerobic Respiration(in animals) anaerobic = in the absence of oxygen www.assignmentpoint.com

  4. In low oxygen conditions or during heavy exercise, when not enough oxygen can be supplied, muscle cells swap to anaerobicrespiration www.assignmentpoint.com

  5. glucose glycolysis still happens as it does not require oxygen 2 ADP + 2 Pi 2 ATP pyruvic acid in absence of oxygen pyruvic acid is turned into lactic acid. lactic acid www.assignmentpoint.com

  6. A build up of lactic acid produces musclefatigue. Muscle fatigue makes muscles ache and contract less powerfully.A recovery period is needed. During this time more oxygen is taken in to convert the lactic acid back into pyruvic acid again.The volume of oxygen needed is called the oxygendebt. www.assignmentpoint.com

  7. Summary glucose pyruvic acid oxygen debt e.g. during hard exercise oxygen debt repaid during recovery time lactic acid www.assignmentpoint.com

  8. Anaerobic Respiration in plants The same process occurs in plants and yeast in low oxygen conditions, e.g. muddy, flooded soils. www.assignmentpoint.com

  9. glucose pyruvic acid 2 ADP + 2 Pi 2 ATP glycolysis still happens, producing 2 ATP molecules This time in absence of oxygen, pyruvic acid is turned into carbon dioxide and ethanol This is irreversible ethanol + carbon dioxide www.assignmentpoint.com

  10. Comparison of aerobic and anaerobic respiration www.assignmentpoint.com
