| 250553151 | cellular respiration | the process of releasing energy from glucose | |
| 250553152 | mitochondria | this cell organelle carries out aerobic cellular respiration | |
| 250553153 | CO2 | chemical formula for carbon dioxide | |
| 250553154 | H2O | chemical formula for water | |
| 250553155 | C6H12O6 | chemical formula for glucose | |
| 250553156 | aerobic respiration | glucose is broken down when it combines with oxygen | |
| 250553157 | anaerobic respiration | glucose is broken down without oxygen | |
| 250553158 | anaerobic respiration | Lactic acid fermentation and alcoholic fermentation are both examples of what? | |
| 250553159 | lactic acid fermentation | process where ATP is produced when muscles run out of oxygen during vigorous activity | |
| 250553160 | alcohol fermentation | process that causes bread dough to rise. (Yeast ferments, giving off carbon dioxide bubbles that form air spaces in slices of bread, alcohol evaporates when bread is baked) | |
