A weightlifter is using heavy weights in short bursts for a competition. Because his muscle cells are not able to take in enough oxygen to make very much ATP the weightlifter begins to get fatigue in his muscles. Which of the following processes is most likely going on in the muscles of the weightlifter as he competes in his event

As the cells run out of oxygen they switch to anaerobic respiration, which allows the cell to make small amounts of ATP in the absence of oxygen.

As the cells run out of oxygen, they die off gradually and the weightlifter's muscles have fewer contracting muscle cells.

The cells will never run out of oxygen if the weightlifter is breathing.

As the cells run out of oxygen, they will continue to make the same amount of ATP, since oxygen is not required to make ATP.

What is the correct equation for cellular respiration?

6O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6 -> 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + Energy

6O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6 + Energy -> 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O

6CO 2 + 6H 2 O -> 6O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6 + Energy

6CO 2 + 6H 2 O + Energy -> 6O 2 + C 6 H 12 O 6

What is cellular respiration?

the breakdown of glucose to release ATP

the breakdown of glucose to release NADH

the breakdown of glucose to release FADH

the breakdown of glucose to release carbon

How can energy from the sun be transferred to animals?

The sun's energy is transformed into food by plants, animals eat plants as food so that they can transform that food into energy.

Plants produced energy through photosynthesis, animals that eat that energy can produce food.

Plants transformed energy of the sun into gases that animals can breath in to use as energy through respiration.

Animals are able to use energy from the sun by eating the plants that provides energy for the animals.

In which way are photosynthesis and cellular respiration different?

Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide, while cellular respiration produces carbon dioxide.

Cellular respiration stores ATP, while photosynthesis releases ATP.

Cellular respiration produces oxygen, while photosynthesis uses oxygen.

Photosynthesis releases energy, while cellular respiration stores energy.

Which of these is a product of cellular respiration?

All of these are a product of cellular respiration

In cellular respiration, the electron transport chain takes place in

the membrane of the mitochondrion

When a phosphate group is removed from an ATP molecule,

a substantial amount of energy is released

The process of cellular respiration

is performed by autotrophs and heterotrophs

is performed only by organisms that are incapable of photosynthesis

occurs before plants are able to carry out photosynthesis

In the presence of oxygen, cellular respiration takes place in two stages. They are

glycolysis, then aerobic respiration

electron transport chain, then fermentation

glycolysis, then the Calvin cycle
