Question

with the help of a systematic flowchart show the breakdown of glucose in a cell to provide energy
a. in the presence of oxygen
b. when there is lack of oxygen​

Answer 1

Answer:

a. The respiration process which requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide, water and large amount of energy is aerobic respiration.

b. The respiration process which occurs in absence of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration.

Explanation:

a. The breakdown of glucose in aerobic respiration is-

C6H12O6 + 6O2 ➡️ 6CO2 +6H2O +Energy(686 kcal/mole)

b. The breakdown of glucose in anaerobic respiration is-

C6H12O6 ➡️ 2C2H5OH +2CO2 + Energy(56 kcal/mole)

The figure is the flow chart of breakdown of glucose.
