Cellular Respiration

Today we're going to finish up looking at respiration, ready for some practicals and revision for the unit test coming up next week. Answer the following in yoru books:

1. Write down the full equation for cellular respiration. You will NEED to know this off by heart!
2. What cells in the blood carry oxygen to the muscles?
3. Complete this quiz, writing down the question and correct answer for one of the quiz questions.
4. Finally, you're going to do some research, similar to what we were doing with powerpoints last week. Think of a question you have about what we've been looking at. e.g -

• What route does the oxygen take from the lungs to the muscles?
• What mnakes the heart beat?
• What percentage of air is carbon dioxide? What about the amount we breathe out?
• How do our muscles move?
• How often do we breathe in a day/month/year/lifetime!
• Why is respiration important?
• Why do we have so many different organs?
• Where is the appendix? What job does the appendix do?

Write some notes about what you find, and we'll be talking about people's answers at the end.
