What products are needed for aerobic respiration?
- Glucose + Oxygen
- Glucose + Carbohydrate
- Carbon Dioxide + Oxygen
- Glucose + Lactic Acid
- Glucose + Iron
Correct Answer

A. Glucose + Oxygen

Explanation

Aerobic respiration requires the combination of glucose and oxygen. Glucose is a type of sugar that serves as the primary source of energy for cells. Oxygen is necessary for the process of cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down to release energy. This process occurs in the presence of oxygen and produces carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Therefore, the correct answer is glucose + oxygen.

How to calculate male's MHR?
- 220 / age
- 220 + age
- 230 - age
- 220 - age
- 220 x age
Correct Answer

A. 220 - age

Explanation

The correct answer is 220 - age. This formula is commonly used to estimate a male's maximum heart rate (MHR). The MHR is the highest number of times a person's heart can beat in one minute during intense physical activity. By subtracting the age from 220, we can approximate the MHR. However, it is important to note that this is a general estimation and individual variations may exist.

What are the by products in anaerobic respiration?
- Glucose + Carbon dioxide
- Oxygen + Glucose
- Lactic acid + Carbon Dioxide
- Lactic acid + oxygen
- Oxygen + Calcium
Correct Answer

A. Lactic acid + Carbon Dioxide

Explanation

During anaerobic respiration, when there is a lack of oxygen, glucose is broken down into lactic acid and carbon dioxide. Lactic acid is produced as a byproduct of this process, which can accumulate in the muscles and cause fatigue and muscle soreness. Carbon dioxide is also released as a waste product. This process is commonly observed in organisms like bacteria and yeast, as well as during intense exercise in humans.
