Question

The graph A and B represent two situations of a person during normal resting period and during the time of exercise.
Identify the type of respiration occur in two situations and explain them with equations.

Answer 1

Curve A is anaerobic respiration which is when there is a lack of oxygen in the atmosphere

Curve B is aerobic respiration when there is enough oxygen present

Equations:

A:

glucose = lactic acids + ATP

B:

glucose + oxygen = carbon di oxide + water + ATP
