What is the definition of Aerobic Respiration?

• the form of in cell respiration that requires free oxygen

• the form of cell respiration that can take place in the absence of free oxygen

• the energy that is stored in the bonds between atoms

• the process that occurs when the chemical energy of "food" molecules, carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, is released and partially captured in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)

What is the definition of Cellular Respiration?

• an organelle in eukaryotic cells that is the site of cellular respiration and generates most of the cell’s ATP

• the breakdown of glucose through a series of biochemical reactions produces two molecules each of ATP, pyruvate, and NADH

• a carbohydrate; produced by photosynthesis; primary source of energy for some plant and animal cells

• the process that occurs when the chemical energy of "food" molecules, carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, is released and partially captured in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
