What is the organelle in which aerobic respiration occurs?
What is the organelle in which aerobic respiration occurs?
Mitochondria
What organelle is most commonly associated with aerobic respiration?
Mitchocondria
Which organelle does cellular respiration occur within?
mitochondrion
What are three products of cellular respiration?
The products of cellular respiration are carbon dioxide and water. Carbon dioxide is transported from your mitochondria out of your cell, to your red blood cells, and back to your lungs to be exhaled. ATP is generated in the process.
What is the relationship between photosynthesis and aerobic cellular respiration?
Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by- products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.
What is the function of enzymes in photosynthesis and cellular respiration?
Enzymes are proteins that catalyze, or affect the rate, of chemical reactions without themselves being altered in the process. Specific enzymes catalyze each cellular reaction. The main role of enzymes during the respiration reaction is to assist in transferring electrons from one molecule to another.
What is the role of enzymes in glycolysis?
Glycolysis. Glycolytic enzymes are located in the sarcoplasm and are associated with the sarcoplasmic reticulum [10,11]. They convert glucose-6-phosphate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides (NAD+) to pyruvate and NADH by producing two molecules of ATP. PFK is one of the key regulators in glycolysis.
What two enzymes are used in photosynthesis?
In the Calvin cycle, ATP and NADPH are used to reduce, or fix, carbon dioxide to produce glucose. This carbon fixation reaction is catalyzed by an enzyme called RUBISCO, a highly abundant protein in plants and possibly the most abundant protein on Earth.
What is the role of enzymes in photosynthesis?
Enzymes of photosynthesis capture energy of sun to build a larger molecule. This captured energy is used furthe by breaking down larger molecule in smaller molecules during glycolysis.
Does photosynthesis create oxygen?
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create oxygen and energy in the form of sugar.
What are the different types of enzymes in the digestive system?
Enzymes
- amylase and other carbohydrase enzymes break down starch into sugar.
- protease enzymes break down proteins into amino acids.
- lipase enzymes break down lipids (fats and oils) into fatty acids and glycerol.
What are the 4 types of enzymes?
Types of enzymes
- Amylase breaks down starches and carbohydrates into sugars.
- Protease breaks down proteins into amino acids.
- Lipase breaks down lipids, which are fats and oils, into glycerol and fatty acids.
Which super enzyme is best?
A: The best digestive enzymes for gastrointestinal health are the ones that are linked directly to digesting the kinds of nutrients you encounter most often in your diet. For most people, these are lipase, lactase, and cellulase, which (respectively) help your body break down fats, lactose, and fiber.
What are the best food enzymes?
Foods that contain natural digestive enzymes include pineapples, papayas, mangoes, honey, bananas, avocados, kefir, sauerkraut, kimchi, miso, kiwifruit and ginger. Adding any of these foods to your diet may help promote digestion and better gut health.
What happens if you take too many enzymes?
Taking too many enzyme supplements can actually damage your intestines, but taking too few can keep you from absorbing the nutrients you need. Do not change the dose without talking with your CF care team. Tips: Enzyme brands are not interchangeable.
