What is respiration​
3241004551 [841]

Respiration is a metabolic process common to all living things. Here, you will learn the definition, location, processes, and formula for cellular respiration. At the end, you can test your knowledge with a short quiz.

What is Respiration?

When you hear the word 'respire,' you probably think of breathing. When you breathe, you are taking in oxygen with each inhale and releasing carbon dioxide with each exhale. This gas exchange is important for respiration, but while breathing is a physical process, respiration can be thought of as more of a chemical process. All organisms, from a single bacterial cell to a coral reef colony to a blue whale, undergo respiration.

Food molecules absorbed after digestion are taken in, broken down, and the energy freed in the process is used to power the organism's movements and physiological functioning. Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining oxygen and glucose, resulting in the release of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (the currency of energy in cells).

When we examine the equation for cellular respiration, we see that the reactants are glucose and oxygen (for aerobic respiration), and the products are carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. Note the number of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water molecules involved in each 'turn' of the process.

Balance with Photosynthesis

Respiration is the antithesis to the process of photosynthesis, in which carbon dioxide and water are taken in by autotrophs, along with sunlight, to make glucose and oxygen. Autotrophs include any photosynthesizing organisms, such as plants and algae, all of whom also undergo respiration. The products of photosynthesis are taken in by heterotrophs, organisms who cannot make their own energy and rely upon autotrophs for food. The byproducts of their respiration - carbon dioxide and water - are then used for photosynthesis. In a balanced ecosystem, this exchange is an example of a negative feedback loop.

Three Phases of Respiration

In prokaryotic cells, respiration takes place in the cytosol and across the cell plasma membrane. In eukaryotic cells, it occurs in the cytosol and in the mitochondria. Mitochondria are the powerhouses of eukaryotic cells, and contain high surface areas of membrane folds on which respiration activity can be maximized.

Why is it important that farmers plant crops during the winter that improve the levels of nitrogen in the soil?
brilliants [131]

Answer:

These crops can fix nitrogen into usable nitrates.  

Explanation:

There are certain crops which are called cover crops, specifically legumes like peas, vetch,clover and winter field beans . Farmers grow these crops during winter before the growth of actual target crops like cabbage etc which are thirsty for Nitrogen.

What is special about these cover crops is their ability to fix nitrogen into the soil from the atmosphere. There are various ways through which these leguminous crops can fix nitrogen into the soil:

  • Some legumes  like hairy vetch and crimson clover, may fix upto 100 pounds of nitrogen per acre for the utilization by the crop growing in same soil next season.
  • Other legumes like red clover and bigflower vetch can fix from 30 to 80 pounds of nitrogen per acre .
  • Now how the legumes fix nitrogen is through  a symbiotic relationship with soil-dwelling bacteria. These are the bacteria that dwell in soil and take nitrogen from atmosphere and provide this nitrogen to leguminous crops through roots which later fix this nitrogen into nitrates.In return, the bacteria can get food in the form of carbohydrates  from legumes.

This phenomenon confers the leguminous crops with an ability to fix  nitrogen in the soil that can be used by the nitrogen requiring crops like cabbage when grown next season in same soil.

Hope it help!
