What is released when sugar is broken down

Biology
1 answer:
Lilit [14]3 years ago
5 0
Mainly there's 3 types of respiration (the breakdown of sugar to release energy). Aerobic respiration, anaerobic respiration in muscles and anaerobic respiration in organisms such as yeast.

Aerobic respiration is to use oxygen and glucose to release water and carbon dioxide. Most of our cells undergo aerobic respiration to generate energy.

Anaerobic respiration in muscles is to only use glucose to generate lactic acid and energy (not carbon dioxide). Anaerobic respiration only happens when we have lack of oxygen, such as during vigorous exercises. Note that this kind of respiration creates a oxygen debt.

Anaerobic respiration in yeasts is to use glucose and release ethanol and carbon dioxide. Since they release ethanol, this respiration is commonly used in wine brewing. And due to that they also release carbon dioxide, they're used in baking bread (alcohol evaporates by the time the bread bakes).

Nezavi [6.7K]
<span>Both photoautotrophs and chemoautotrophs synthesize organic compounds from (inorganic) carbon dioxide, a process known as carbon fixation. Photoautotrophs get the energy to perform these reactions from light. Chemoautotrophs get it from electron donors such as hydrogen sulfide and ammonia. Cyanobacteria, by contrast, convert nitrogen from the atmosphere into ammonia, a process known as nitrogen fixation.</span>

1. Why does the moon appear to change throughout each month? *
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

As the Earth moves in relative to the moon the Earth blocks part of the sun from the moon causing only parts of the moon to light up. This BEST answers the question because B is not accurate because it doesn't describe why we actually SEE it. A might be true but it is not the BEST explained.

Hope this helps! (^-^)

A nurse is exposed to hepatitis c and receives a shot of gamma globulin. what type of immunity does this nurse have?
Sonbull [250]
This is called passive immunity. Passive in such a way that the vaccine came from another human blood plasma which contains antibodies that temporarily combats disease-causing virus/bacteria. Vaccination with gamma globulin transiently boosts patient's immunity against illnesses or diseases.
