  3. Why Do Living Things Respire? 10.1 • Learning Outcomes • After this section, you should be able to: • understand that living things respire to release the energy locked up in food molecules; • define aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration; • state the equation, in words and in symbols, for aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration in humans; and • describe the effect of lactic acid in muscles during exercise.

  4. Why Do Living Things Respire? 10.1 Why respire? • Living organisms respire because they need energy to sustain life. • Energy that is needed for organisms to move, grow, excrete and reproduce, is obtained through the consumption of food. • To use the energy available in food, living things need to break down the food molecules through a process called ____________________. • The oxidation of food molecules to produce energy is called ____________________.

  5. energy + O2 C6H12O6 CO2 H2O 6 + 6 6 + oxygen glucose water carbon dioxide Why Do Living Things Respire? 10.1 What is aerobic respiration? • It is the breakdown of food molecules in the ____________________. • It results in the production of __________________ and it gives off ____________________and _______________as waste products. • The chemical equation for aerobic respiration:

  6. energy + C3H6O3 2 Why Do Living Things Respire? 10.1 What is anaerobic respiration? • It is the breakdown of food molecules in the ____________________. • It releases __________________than aerobic respiration. • The chemical equation for anaerobic respiration in humans: C6H12O6 lactic acid glucose (energy produced is less than in aerobic respiration)

  7. Why Do Living Things Respire? 10.1 What happens during exercise and why? • Muscles ___________________to enable movement. • Respiratory rate and heart rate increase to enable more oxygen to reach the muscles. • If the increased oxygen intake is not able to meet the oxygen demand, an __________________ results and ___________takes place to provide the energy required. • Anaerobic respiration results in the accumulation of ____________________in the muscle cells. • Lactic acid accumulation can cause _______________and muscular pains.

  9. Studying Respiration 10.2 • Learning Outcomes • After this section, you should be able to: • describe simple experiments that show what the products of respiration are.

  10. Studying Respiration 10.2 Carbon dioxide is a product of respiration • The potassium hydroxide in flask A removes carbon dioxide from the air entering flask B. • The limewater in flask B should not turn chalky. • The air entering flask C does not contain carbon dioxide. Hence, any carbon dioxide detected in flask D would be due to respiration by the snails. A B C D potassium hydroxide solution limewater snails limewater

  11. Studying Respiration 10.2 Carbon dioxide is a product of respiration • The glucose solution that is used was first boiled and cooled to remove the dissolved oxygen from the solution. • Due to the limited oxygen available to the yeast, the yeast undergoes anaerobic respiration. • If carbon dioxide is released during the anaerobic respiration of yeast, the limewater will turn chalky. glucose and yeast suspension limewater

Ciliated cells have __________that sweep the trapped particles and bacteria up the bronchi and trachea, into the ___________________. cilia ciliated cell

  19. Gas Exchange in Humans 10.3 Human gas exchange system The lungs lie in the pleural cavity. Within the lungs, the bronchial tubes divide repeatedly to form __________________. Bronchioles end in cluster of _______________ called ____________________. nasal passage pharynx larynx trachea bronchus _____________ __________ cluster of _________ URL

  20. Gas Exchange in Humans 10.3 The alveoli The alveoli are the ______ _____________________. The numerous alveoli in the lungs increase the surface area for gaseous exchange.

The alveolar surface is coated with a ___________________. This allows gases to dissolve in it. The wall of each alveolus is only _____________________. It is supplied by _______________that are also only one cell thick.
