To add on to our poster about Aerobic and Anaerobic respiration :
Aerobic respiration is the process that takes place in presence of oxygen. Aerobic respiration is the metabolic process that involves break down of fuel molecules to obtain bio-chemical energy and has oxygen as the terminal electron acceptor. Fuel molecules commonly used by cells in aerobic respiration are glucose, amino acids and fatty acids.
it can be represented like that : Glucose + Oxygen →Energy + Carbon dioxide + Water.
Secondly : aerobic respiration is a high energy yielding process. During the process of aerobic respiration as many as 38 molecules of ATP are produced for every molecule of glucose that is utilized. Thus aerobic respiration process breaks down a single glucose molecule to yield 38 units of the energy storing ATP molecules.

Anaerobic respiration : It takes place without oxygen , it is the process of oxidation of molecules in the absence of oxygen, which results in production of energy in the form of ATP or adenosine tri-phosphate.
it can be represented / occur in these two ways :
1)Glucose (Broken down to) →Energy (ATP) + Ethanol + Carbon dioxide (CO2)

2) Glucose (Broken down to) →Energy (ATP) + Lactic acid

the difference betwen these two types of repiration is also that in aerobic respiration , it is a high energy yielding process whereas in anaerobic respiration , it is relatively less energy yielding as compared to the aerobic respiration process.
Secondly , anaerobic respiration breaks down one glucose molecule to obtain two units of the energy storing ATP molecules. However , in anaerobic repiration , a single glucose molecule is broken down to yield 38 units of the energy storing ATP molecules.

Our own theory : both photosynthesis and respiration involves chemical process but not chemical processes.
However , some says that both processes are chemical processes.
which is true ?


another post will be put up later.
