Breathing
- Breathing is a biophysical process that involves the exchange of gases through inhalation and exhalation.
- It is a biomechanical/biophysical process.
- Breathing consists of two steps; inhalation and exhalation.
- Breathing includes both voluntary and involuntary actions.
- Inhalation is an active process, whereas exhalation is a passive process.
- Breathing provides oxygen to different parts of the body.
- Breathing occurs in all vertebrates and some arthropods.
- Breathing doesn’t provide energy.
- No enzymes are involved in breathing.
- Breathing involves most organs of the respiratory system.
- Breathing is an extracellular process. Respiration is an intracellular process.
- Different respiratory muscles and diaphragm are involved in breathing.
- Breathing is regulated by respiratory muscles and diaphragm.
- The two major events during breathing are gas exchange and ventilation.
- No metabolic reactions are involved in breathing.
Respiration
- Respiration is a biochemical process to release energy from organic compounds which are then used for performing different physical activities.
- It is a biochemical process
- Respiration consists of three steps; glycolysis, Kreb’s cycle and electron transport chain.
- Respiration is an involuntary action.
- Except for some reactions in glycolysis, no other steps require energy.
- Respiration produces a large amount of energy by the degradation of organic compounds.
- Respiration occurs in all living organism present on the earth.
- Respiration results in the production of energy.
- Several enzymes catalyze different steps of respiration.
- Respiration occurs in the mitochondria of cells.
- Muscles are not involved during respiration.
- Respiration is regulated by various enzymes.
- The two major events during respiration are gas exchange and breakdown of complex compounds into simpler forms.
- Respiration is a metabolic process with multiple reactions.
