RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which type of reaction is shown below?glucose
A
photosynthesis
B
aerobic respiration
C
cellular respiration
D
anaerobic respiration
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Respiration is a chemical reaction which takes place in all livings cells and releases energy from glucose. Anaerobic respiration occurs without oxygen and releases less energy but more quickly than aerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration in microorganisms is called fermentation.

Detailed explanation-2: -When you run fast there is a chemical reaction called anaerobic respiration. This reaction transfers energy from glucose to your cells without oxygen. There is just one waste product called lactic acid.

Detailed explanation-3: -Recall that glycolysis breaks a glucose molecule into two pyruvate molecules, producing a net gain of two ATP and two NADH molecules. Lactic acid fermentation is the type of anaerobic respiration carried out by yogurt bacteria (Lactobacillus and others) and by your own muscle cells when you work them hard and fast.

Detailed explanation-4: -The correct option is B False Glucose is converted into lactic acid during aerobic respiration.
