Chapter 10 Vocabulary - Biology

Cellular Respiration:

•  first set of reactions in cellular respiration during which a molecule of glucose is broken into 2 molecule of pyruvic acid

  
  

• process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen

  
  

•  amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree celsius

  
  

• process by which cells release energy in the absence of oxygen
