Question

1. write the word equation for aerobic respiration.
2. write the word equation for anaerobic respiration.
3. fermentation produces energy and ______

Explanation:

Question 6:

Aerobic respiration uses glucose and oxygen to produce energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water. The reactants are glucose and oxygen; the products are carbon dioxide, water, and energy.

Anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen. In animals, it produces lactic acid and energy; in yeast/plants, it produces ethanol, carbon dioxide, and energy. A common word equation for anaerobic respiration (e.g., in yeast) is glucose breaking down into ethanol, carbon dioxide, and energy.

Fermentation (a type of anaerobic respiration) produces energy (ATP) and either lactic acid (in muscle cells) or ethanol and carbon dioxide (in yeast). So the missing product depends on the type, but generally, it produces a by - product like lactic acid (in animal fermentation) or ethanol and $CO_2$ (in microbial fermentation). A common answer is lactic acid (for muscle fermentation) or ethanol and carbon dioxide (for yeast fermentation).

Answer:

Glucose + Oxygen $
ightarrow$ Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy (ATP)
