How Does Exercise Affect the Rate of Cellular Respiration

What this means to me

This is important to me because physical activity and fitness have always played a big roll in my life. I am currently in the process of getting my personal training certificate. So doing this project and relating the two together helps me better understand what type of exercises to do based on my clients goals.

Exercise

Aerobic or Anaerobic

The type of respiration you use depends on the intensity and duration of your exercise. Anaerobic respiration takes place at the beginning of exercise for up to 90 seconds. Short and intense exercise, such as sprinting, increases the rate of anaerobic respiration. If you were to keep exercising after 90 seconds then the cells start to rely on aerobic respiration. So they type of exercise you do such as sprinting or heavy weight lifting do affect the rate of cellular respiration.

There are two types of Cellular Respiration Aerobic and Anaerobic. Aerobic respiration uses oxygen, areobic occurs in most cells. Aerobic respiration uses oxygen, Anaerobic respiration occurs mostly in prokaryotes.

Glycolysis

What is Cellular Respiration?

Glycolysis literally means "splitting sugars." Glucose, a six carbon sugar, is split into two molecules of a three carbon sugar. Glycolysis takes place in the cell's cytoplasm.

Electron Transport

Cellular respiration is a biological process where cells convert sugar, amino acids and fatty acids into energy used by the cell. The process plays an essential role in maintaining the biological functions of all living cells.

Electron transport requires oxygen directly. The electron transport chain is a series of electron carriers in the membrane of the mitochondria in eukaryotic cells.

The Krebs Cycle

What exactly does that mean?

Cellular Respiration is when cells produce the energy they need to survive. Cells use oxygen to break down the sugar glucose and store its energy in molecules of adenosine triphosphate also known as ATP. There are three main stages of cellular respiration: glycolysis, the krebs cycle, and electron transport.

The krebs cycle begins after the two molecules of the three carbon sugar produced in glycolysis are converted to a slightly different compound. Two ATP are produced.
