GCSE Biology Week 5: Cellular Respiration
AlllivingcellscarryoutRespiration– EVENPlants!(Theyphotosynthesize– whenits
light,andrespirewhenitsdark!)
Respirationisnotbreathing!Breathingisventilation (breathinginandout)which
actuallyprovidestheOxygen(O2)neededforaerobicrespiration.

Energy comes from the digested chemicals from foods – respiration is the
process that releases the energy.
Cellular Respiration:You need ENERGY to live.
Respiration is NOT
BREATHING!(ventilation)
It is actually a process that occurs in all your
CELLS in your body!It is the process of
RELEASING ENERGY from GLUCOSE.
There are 2 types of RESPIRATION:
1. Aerobic – requires Oxygen!
2. Anaerobic – does not require Oxygen!
REMEMBER:
RESPIRATION is the process of
RELEASING ENERGY from
GLUCOSE
Aerobic means “with O2” and aerobic respiration occurs when there is lots of O2 present
2. Aerobic respiration releases more ENERGY per molecule of GLUCOSE than anaerobic
respiration.
C6H12O6 + O2 à CO2 + H2O + ENERGY (ATP)
You MUST REMEMBER
THIS EQUATION!
turning GLUCOSE from your food, and O2 from your LUNGS into CARBON DIOXIDE and WATER. Releasing LOTS of
ENERGY in the process!
Mostly you are using AEROBIC RESPIRATION:
Aerobicrespiration usesoxygen (O2)andthemostefficientwayofgettingenergy (ATP)fromglucose.
Infact,ifwecomparetoanaerobicrespiration,wefindthatforevery1moleculeofGlucose(C6H12O6)aerobicrespiration (withO2)provides20timesmore

BloodtransportsO2 andGlucose(C6H12O6)(Food)toourcells,whereenzymes(biologicalcatalyst’s)speeduptheprocessofreleasingenergy.
SoWhatistheequationforRespiration? Remember,respirationusesoxygenandfood(glucose)togetenergy!So,wehave:Oxygen+Glucose=Energy

Water isalsoabyproductofrespiration,whichisthenlostassweat;someinyoururine;andsomeasmoistbreath(ventilation– youbreathout

The energy released by respiration is used
to make ATP (adenosine
triphosphate)
2. ATP is a small molecule that is easily transported
around cells. It carries the ENERGY released during
RESPIRATION to the places where ENERGY is NEEDED
1. ATP is the ‘ENERGY CURRENCY’ of living things…
3. Energy released from both aerobic and anaerobic
respiration is used to make ATP
Your muscles require energy (ATP) from respiration to contract.
When you exercise some of your muscles contract more
often, and so need more ENERGY!
MUSCLES NEED ATPThis ENERGY comes from
increased respiration!
This increase means you need to get more O2 and GLUCOSE into the cells.
So… your BREATHING RATE INCREASES to get more O2 into the…
Blood.BREATHING
RATE INCREASES!
Your HEART RATE INCREASES to get
GLUCOSE and OXYGENATED
BLOOD around the body supplying your muscles quickly, and
removes CO2 quickly at the same time!
How much you RESPIRE is dependent upon what you are doing!e.g. you respire more when doing exercise…
HEART RATE
INCREASES
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION:
Does NOTuse O2 at all!
When you do vigorous exercise your body cannot supply enough O2 to your muscles using anaerobic
respiration – even though your Heart rate and
breathing rate increase as a much as possible!
So, your muscles start to respire without O2 – they respire
anaerobically. (in addition to aerobic)
ANAEROBIC = ‘without O2’.
ANAEROBIC simply means ‘without O2’.
It is NOT the best way to use GLUCOSE because it releases
much LESS ENERGY.
GLUCOSE à LACTIC ACID (+ ENERGY RELEASED)
During anaerobic respiration GLUCOSEis only PARTIALLY
broken down and LACTIC ACID
is also produced!
You MUST REMEMBER
THIS EQUATION!
The ADVANTAGE is that you can continue using
your muscles!
However… The LACTIC ACID produced can build up
in the muscles. After resorting to
anaerobic respiration, your muscles have an O2 DEPT.
This is the amount of extra O2 required to break
down the built up LACTIC ACID.
Oxygen DeptThis is why you continue to have an
increased BREATHING RATE for a while after you have stopped Exercising.
…so your
HEART RATE has to remain
HIGH to carry The EXTRA required to
Break the LACTIC ACID down.
The Lactic acid is BROKEN DOWN in your MUSCLES and in
your LIVER…
AnaerobicRespirationRecap.
