Effect Of Co2 On Cellular Respiration

395 Words2 Pages
Cellular respiration is a fundamental biological process that occurs in plants and animals and generates energy. Its chemical equation is 6O2+C6H12O66CO2+6H2O + ATP, the exact opposite of the second stage of photosynthesis (after the first stage during which sunlight is converted into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)). The circulatory system transports the glucose (C6H12O6) from the digestive system to the cells, the Oxygen (O2) from the alveoli to the cells, and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) from the cells to the alveoli. In the alveoli, O2 diffuses into capillaries close to alveoli and CO2 does the opposite. O2 and CO2 are transported into and out of the human body by the respiration system. CO2 is one of the byproducts of cellular respiration, the other

In this experiment the rate of cellular respiration was measured by the amount of CO2 in ppm per gram of substance produced by a given treatment group or the control over the course of ten minutes. CO2 levels were measured using a CO2 sensor. The sensor was given time to warm up then placed in a glass chamber with a sample from one of the treatment groups or a sample of control. CO2 levels in ppm were collected every four seconds for ten minutes by the sensor. The data was divided by the weight of the sample used to generate it, to give the respiration rate per gram of sample.

Transitioning between photosynthesis and respiration : CO2 cuts into carbon and oxygen, some of the oxygen is then released and the carbon mixes with H20. If it was mad and balanced, the effect of carbon and water will also affect glucose. This is called photosynthesis. Plants take the water and CO2 in order to make food (glucose) which sets the oxygen free.

Respiration is the process by which organisms consume oxygen to create energy. By measuring oxygen consumption, the metabolic rate can be determined because of its correlation to respiration. In this experiment, the rate of oxygen consumption is measured in water using the poikilotherm goldfish. Unlike the body temperature

Many organisms use energy to perform their cellular functions. That energy comes from the energy that is stored in food then converted to adenosine triphosphate or ATP. ATP can be obtained with or without oxygen, aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration produces carbon dioxide (CO2) as a by-product while anaerobic respiration produces Ethanol (C2H6O) or Lactic acid (C3H6O3). In aerobic respiration the “CO2 produced during cellular respiration can combine with water to produce carbonic acid.”

The stomata are the most critical piece to this process, as this is where CO2 enters and can be stored, and where water and O2 exit. Cellular respiration also known as oxidative metabolism is important to convert biochemical energy from nutrients in the cells of living organisms to useful energy known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Without cellular respiration living organisms would not be able to sustain life. This process is done by cells exchanging gases within its surroundings to create adenosine triphosphate commonly known as ADT, which is used by the cells as a source of energy. This process is done through numerous reactions; an example is metabolic pathway.

The glucose will be used in cellular respiration for energy and some of the oxygen will exit the plant through the stomata to provide the world with air to breath (Simms, 2017). Cellular respiration is the next step which is a light independent reaction which takes the glucose and some oxygen from photosynthesis and produces CO2 and H2O. The balance of

Cellular respiration is when cells break down food and release energy along with oxygen and water. Oxygen is needed for glycolysis, the first stage of cellular respiration, to occur because if no oxygen is there, then fermentation takes place. With oxygen present, glycolysis continues to the krebs cycle which then carries high energy electrons to the electron transport chain through NADH and FADH2. After this process fully goes through the whole cycle, energy is released and cellular respiration has taken place. In this lab we test the effects that exercise has on cellular respiration.

Then, tests are performed to determine if the products of aerobic and anaerobic respiration are present in the flasks. The citric acid cycle consists of a series of chemical reactions used by all aerobic organisms to release stored energy through the oxidation of acetyl-CoA derived from carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into carbon dioxide and chemical energy in the form of ATP (Biology). The tests detect the presence of carbon dioxide and ethanol. Carbon dioxide should be present irrespective of the type of respiration taking place, but ethanol is present only if fermentation has occurred. Another factor that can indicate whether fermentation occurred or cellular respiration occurred is the amount of glucose utilized during incubation.

Cellular Respiration One of the main essentials of life that all organisms need in order to function in our world is, energy. We receive that energy from the food that we eat. Cellular respiration is the most efficient way for a cell to receive the energy stored in food. In cellular respiration, a catabolic pathway, which breaks down the molecules into smaller units, in order to produce adenosine triphosphate, also known as, ATP. ATP, is used by cells in the act of regular cellular operations, it is a “high energy” molecule.

Consumption is when carbon compounds are passed to herbivores when they feed on photosynthetic plants. These compounds are then passed up the food chain when the herbivores are eaten. Respiration is a byproduct of consumptions is energy creation and carbon dioxide waste. Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere through cellular respiration and can then be used by plants during photosynthesis. Decomposition is when carbon dioxide is given off when organisms die.

The Respiratory System is a process by which we take in oxygen and give off of carbon dioxide. We have to perform this function in order to maintain life. The breathing of a human being is one form of respiration, called external respiration. All living cells need oxygen in order to carry out their various functions.
