Questions and Answers 100%
PASS
aerobic respiration—ANSWER-an exothermic reaction in which glucose is
broken down using oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water and release
energy for the cells
anaerobic respiration—ANSWER-an exothermic reaction in which glucose is
broken down in the absence of oxygen to produce lactic acid in animals and
ethanol and carbon dioxide in plants and yeast. A small amount of energy is
transferred for the cells
exothermic reaction—ANSWER-a reaction that transfers energy to the
environment
glycogen—ANSWER-carbohydrate store in animals
lactic acid—ANSWER-the end product of anaerobic respiration in animal
cells
oxygen debt—ANSWER-the extra oxygen that must be taken into the body
after exercise has stopped to complete the aerobic respiration of lactic acid
, Mitochondria—ANSWER-Organelle that is the site of respiration
Responses to exercise—ANSWER-Heart rate increases, Breathing rate
increases, glycogen in muscles is converted to glucose
endothermic reaction—ANSWER-a reaction that requires a transfer of energy
from the environment
glucose—ANSWER-a simple sugar
limiting factors—ANSWER-limit the rate of a reaction, for example
photosynthesis
photosynthesis—ANSWER-the process by which plants make food using
carbon dioxide, water, and light
Reactants for photosynthesis—ANSWER-water and carbon dioxide
Products of photosynthesis—ANSWER-glucose and oxygen
Chloroplast—ANSWER-Site of photosynthesis
white blood cells—ANSWER-Blood cells that perform the function of
destroying disease-causing microorganisms
Sperm cells—ANSWER-It has a long tail and a streamlined head to help it
swim. There are a lot of mitochondria in the cell to provide the energy
needed. It also carries enzymes in its head to digest through the egg cell
membrane.
light—ANSWER-energy source for photosynthesis
