	Cellular respiration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Cellular respiration is the process in which the chemical bonds of energy-rich molecules such as glucose are converted into energy usable for life processes.
		Cellular respiration is the same process but it occurs in gradual steps that result in the conversion of the energy stored in glucose to usable chemical energy in the form of ATP.
		Respiration is the process by which cells obtain energy when oxygen is present in the cell.

	aerobic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Aerobic respiration can be broken down into three segments: glycolysis is common to both aerobic and anaerobic organisms and breaks the 6-carbon glucose into 2 3-carbon fragments; the Krebs cycle, which oxidizes the 3-carbon molecules into CO by removing electrons; and electron transport, which extracts energy by using those electrons to reduce molecular oxygen.
		In aerobic respiration, about 42% of the energy in glucose may be transferred to ATP; the remainder is given off as heat.
		Demonstration of respiration in a given organism could be accomplished by measuring energy given off as heat, the amount of glucose consumed, the amount of carbon dioxide given off, or the amount of oxygen used up.

	Aerobic Respiration
		Aerobic respiration is the release of energy from glucose or another organic substrate in the presence of Oxygen.
		Strictly speaking aerobic means in air, but it is the Oxygen in the air which is necessary for aerobic respiration.
		Anaerobic respiration is in the absence of air.

	aerobic respiration
		Aerobic respiration includes those portions of the respiratory metabolic pathway that are oxygen dependent.
		In prokaryotes, the enzymes and carrier molecules involved in the aerobic pathways are embedded in the plasma membrane, and the reactions occur in the cytoplasm at the surface of the membrane.
		In the final steps of aerobic respiration, these electrons are passed through a series of oxidation-reduction reactions in the electron transport system.

	Term Paper on Aerobic Respiration
		Cellular respiration is a metabolic process that occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells.
		Respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis, which uses energy from light to create glucose molecules.
		Aerobic respiration consists of three processes: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

	SparkNotes: Glycolysis: Anaerobic Respiration: Homolactic Fermentation
		However, immediately upon finishing glycolysis, the cell must continue respiration in either an aerobic or anaerobic direction; this choice is made based on the circumstances of the particular cell.
		If a cell able to perform aerobic respiration is in a situation where there is no oxygen (such as muscles under extreme exertion), it will move into a type of anaerobic respiration called homolactic fermentation.
		In both aerobic and anaerobic respiration, the NADH molecule is part of the enzyme complex and must be restored to its NAD, oxidized state.

	Theresa's NHCC General Respiration Concepts Page
		The purpose of respiration is to release chemical bond energy from organic "food" molecules, and to convert some of that energy into chemical bond energy in the form of ATP.
		Aerobic and anaerobic respiration begin to differ at the end of glycolysis, and pyruvate is the end-product of glycolysis.
		In anaerobic respiration, pyruvate is converted to ethanol (and CO or lactic acid.

	Metabolism - Respiration
		Respiration is the oxidation of a source of energy by removal of electrons and donation to an inorganic terminal electron accepter.
		Respiration is much more efficient than fermentation and respiring organisms, including us, have come to dominate the earth.
		For aerobic respiration this is oxygen, but bacteria are also capable of using nitrate, sulfate, methane and others.

	Aerobic Respiration
		Aerobic respiration is the metabolic process that provides usable energy for most cells (including plants) by breaking the chemical bonds in glucose (or some other substrate).
		Yeasts are good organisms to investigate because they respond quickly to changes in the nutrient composition of their environment and are small enough to easily fit in a reaction cuvette.
		Thus, respiration rates can be studied by measuring the decrease of glucose or oxygen or the formation of carbon dioxide.

	BBC - GCSE Bitesize - Biology \| Humans \| Aerobic and anaerobic respiration
		As you can see, a lot of energy is released in aerobic respiration - 2900 kj from one glucose and 6 oxygen molecules.
		In anaerobic respiration the glucose is only partially broken down, and lactic acid is produced - together with a much smaller amount of energy.
		In this case ethanol (alcohol) is produced instead of lactic acid, and this reaction is used in the brewing of alcoholic drinks.
