When cellular respiration occurs within a cell, carbon dioxide is formed as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is transported o

ut of the cell and absorbed by the blood stream. There, the carbon dioxide undergoes a chemical reaction and forms carbonic acid within the blood. When the carbonic acid reaches the capillaries in the lungs, the enzyme carbonic anhydrase helps reverse the reaction, and the carbonic acid is converted back to carbon dioxide and water. Which of the following would most likely happen if a person's body stopped producing carbonic anhydrase? The person would begin exhaling carbonic acid instead of carbon dioxide The person's breathing rate would slow down. The blood's acidity would increase and become toxic. The blood's volume would increase until a hemorrhage occurred.

How many total ATP are created with Cellular Respiration? What are the processes in which ATP is generated and how many ATP are
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

There is a total of 38 ATP produced. ATP is produced from 3 different steps. The first step is Glycolysis which produces 2 net ATP. Next, is the KREBS cycle (aka the Citric acid cycle) which also produces 2 ATP. The final step is the Electron Transport Chain, which produces 34 ATP.

Anabolic reactions require an input of energy, while catabolic reactions release energy. When talking about the metabolism, ATP is released through catabolic reactions. To grow and build muscles, for example, anabolic reactions are need (because you need food to gain muscle mass).

Anaerobic respiration means that NO OXYGEN is present while aerobic respiration takes place in the presence of oxygen. It is important to note that ONLY GLYCOLYSIS can occur during anaerobic respiration. Also, fermentation occurs during anaerobic respiration. There are two types of fermentation; lactic acid and "alcoholic". basically, lactic acid fermentation produces, well, lactic acid (which is used in yogurt and it's also the cramps you feel while running the mile in gym). Alcoholic fermentation is what is used to make alcohols like isopropanol or drinking alcohols like vodka.

Hope this helps :)
