What ils respiration? Give the overall equations of aerobic and anaerobic respiration.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1. Respiration: The intracellular oxidation of energy-rich complex organic compounds into their simpler forms wilth the release of energy is called respiration.
2. Overall equation of aerobic respiration:
`C_(6)H_(12)O_(6)+6O_(2)+6H_(2)O+` Energy (686 Kcal)
(Energy `=` Heat energy `+38` ATP molecules)
3. Overall equation of anaerobic respiration:
`C_(6)H_(12)O_(6)to 2CO_(2)+2C_(2)H_(5)OH+` Energy (50Kcal)
(Heat energy `+` 2ATP miolecules)
