aerobic respiration: oxidation of glucose in the cell to produce energy with the presence of oxygen
- aerobic respiration occurs in e cytoplasm and proceed to the mitochondria...
- aerobic respiration occurs when there is adequate oxygen supply
- the main substrate of e aerobic respiration is GLUCOSE
- glucose is oxidised to produce co2, water and energy. oxygen is used in oxidation.
- each stage is catalyst by an enzyme
- most energy is converted to ATP from ADP. some energy is lost by heat
- chemical equation : C6H12O6 + 6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy
