1 2.8 Respiration Understanding:
Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds to produce ATP ATP from cell respiration is immediately available as a source of energy in the cell Anaerobic cell respiration gives a small yield of ATP from glucose Aerobic cell respiration requires oxygen and gives a large yield of ATP from glucose Applications: Use of anaerobic cell respiration in yeasts to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide in baking Lactate production in humans when anaerobic respiration is used to maximise the power of muscle contractions Skills: Analysis of results from experiments involving measurement of respiration rates in germinating seeds or invertebrates using a respirometer Nature of science: Assessing the ethics of scientific research: the use of invertebrates in respirometer experiments has ethical implications

2 Energy Glucose Water Oxygen Carbon dioxide Make an equation

3 Glucose Oxygen Carbon dioxide Water Energy

4 What is respiration? Controlled release of energy from organic compounds to produce ATP E.G energy released in muscle fibres by breaking down glucose  carbon dioxide and water Energy produced used for muscle contraction Understanding: Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds to produce ATP

5 Source of organic compounds to break down comes from the food we eat
In humans Source of organic compounds to break down comes from the food we eat Understanding: Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds to produce ATP

6 Enzymes Enzymes ensure as much energy is retained as possible in a usable form: Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Continuously needed and produced in each cell to carry out their functions Understanding: ATP from cell respiration is immediately available as a source of energy in the cell

7 Why do cells need energy?
Three main types of activity: Synthesizing large molecules (DNA, RNA, proteins) Pumping molecules across membranes by active transport Moving things around inside the cell (vesicles, chromosomes) Understanding: ATP from cell respiration is immediately available as a source of energy in the cell

8 Aerobic Respiration Glucose fully broken down Oxygen used Releases a great quantity of energy 30 molecules of ATP produced per glucose molecule Understanding: Aerobic cell respiration requires oxygen and gives a large yield of ATP from glucose

9 Anaerobic Respiration
No oxygen used to break down glucose Yield of ATP small 2 molecules of ATP per glucose molecule Short rapid burst of ATP needed Oxygen supplies run out in cells Environment is deficient in oxygen (waterlogged soils) Understanding: Anaerobic cell respiration gives a small yield of ATP from glucose

10 Anaerobic Respiration
Ancestors would need to escape predators quickly Chasing animals for food Need a short burst of ATP Those that are better – survive and reproduce Now mainly used in sport Applications: Lactate production in humans when anaerobic respiration is used to maximise the power of muscle contractions

11 Research Research the uses of yeast: What is yeast?
Does it respire aerobically or anaerobically or both? How is yeast used in baking? (Refer to carbon dioxide and ethanol production) What is bioethanol? What is it used for? How is it produced? Type of fungus Can complete aerobic and anaerobic respiration Converts sugars in dough into ethanol and carbon dioxide – makes it soft and fluffy! Bioethanol Renewable energy source from plants Use yeast to produce this by fermentation Can be used to power cars Applications: Use of anaerobic cell respiration in yeasts to produce ethanol and carbon dioxide in baking

12 MAGGOTS! Next week we will complete a practical with maggots. You will then complete an exploration for the planning of this practical. Draw and label a respirometer. Answer the following questions: What does a respirometer measure specifically? What is the purpose of the limewater? Why does temperature need to be controlled? Why does the oxygen move towards the maggots and not away from it? What are the ethical issues with using maggots in the practical? Once you have completed this, come and get a practical sheet. Read through and start to plan your exploration. Use your old exploration and the criteria you had to complete this. Practical: Monday 16th Exploration due: Monday 23rd Skills: Analysis of results from experiments involving measurement of respiration rates in germinating seeds or invertebrates using a respirometer Nature of science: Assessing the ethics of scientific research: the use of invertebrates in respirometer experiments has ethical implications
