The earliest written use of the name, spelled Rontaks, was in 1724 by the French missionary Joseph-François Lafitau. He defined it as tree eaters. In the Mohawk language, Adirondack means porcupine, an animal that may eat bark. The Mohawks had no written language at the time so Europeans have used various phonetic spellings. An English map from 1761 labels it simply Deer Hunting Country and the mountains were named Adirondacks in 1837 by Ebenezer Emmons.

Anaerobes carry on whereas aerobes carry on cellular respiration
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

Anaerobes carry on cellular respiration in the absence of oxygen, whereas aerobes carry on cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen.        

Explanation:

Many of the cell processes needed need some energy to occur. Cellular respiration is the process by which cells degrade organic compounds and turn them into energy. Cellular respiration follows two ways, which depend on the presence or absence of oxygen, and both of them begin with the process of glycolysis, which occurs in the cytoplasm and does not need oxygen to occur.

<u>Aerobic Respiration</u>

  1. Occurs in the presence of free oxygen.
  2. Series of reactions by which pyruvic acid (product of glycolysis) turns into CO₂ and H₂O, producing many ATP molecules.
  3. Respiration occurs in the mitochondria.
  4. Takes place in two steps or stages: Krebs cycle and electron transporter chain.
  5. Glycolysis and Krebs cycle produce electrons, which then travel along the electron transporter chain while releasing energy, and ATP is produced.

<u>Anaerobic Respiration </u>

  1. Occurs in the absence of free oxygen
  2. Series of reactions by which using pyruvate (product of glycolysis) 2 ATP molecules van be produced.
  3. There are two ways in which anaerobic respiration can be produced: lactic fermentation and alcoholic fermentation.
  4. Lactic fermentation produces lactic acid and 2 ATP
  5. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in two steps, and the final products are ethylic alcohol, 2ATP, and 2 CO₂
  6. The whole anaerobic process occurs outside the mitochondria.
