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).

Fudgin [204]
I believe the answer is decomposers. Does that make sense in the context of what you have learned in class? If you look up "the circle of phosphorous," you can see images that show that decomposers, like fungi and microbes break down dead animals and plants using some of their phosphorous, but what isn't used is returned to the soil. The same can be said for sulfur. Decomposers like fungi and bacteria break down dead plants and animals and return sulfur to the soil. 

I want to warn you that there is a slight possibility that I might be incorrect. I am still pretty sure I am right. The only thing that makes me question the correctness of my answer is another brainily question I saw when i was looking up this stuff. Two people had responded to that Middle schoolers question and had said the answer was producers. They didn't give any explanation for their answers. So, I am confused as to how they both got the same answer that was different from mine.  No material that I have seen regarding either the phosphorous cycle or sulfur cycle has shown plants as RETURNING the most sulfur and phosphorous into the soil. Usually, it has been depicted that producers, such as plants, UTILIZE the most phosphorous and Sulfur from the soil.
