Aerobic Repiration
- Glucose is in turn broken down by a process called glycolysis, which takes place in the cytoplasm, or cellular fluid. Glycolysis, the glycolysis process uses two ATP molecules to convert glucose, which has 6- carbon atoms, into two 3-carbon molecules of a compound called pyruvate in a series of steps.
- Aerobic respiration takes place in almost all living things. It is easy to get rid of the Carbon Dioxide and excess water and maximum energy is released from the glucose.
- Equation:
orGlucose + Oxygen --> Carbon Dioxide + Water + chemical energy stored in ATP molecules
This is the process of Aerobic Respiration ^^^^^^^
