Metabolic rateMeasurement of how fast our body is using energy
OxygenThe rate at which this gas is consumed tells us our metabolic rate
GlucoseThe preferred fuel for respiration
BurningUnlike respiration, this process is uncontrolled, produces flames and is often incomplete
CalorimetryThe type of experiment used to measure the energy value of foods
WaterA liquid produced by aerobic respiration
EnzymesControl the rate of respiration
MitochondriaWhere aerobic respiration takes place
Lactic acidPoison produced by anaerobic respiration in humans
AnaerobicType of respiration which doesn't use oxygen
More energyWhy do organisms use aerobic respiration when they can
Oxygen debtPhrase used to describe the oxygen needed to break down lactic acid after exercise
MusclesSite of anaerobic respiration in humans, where lactic acid builds up
FatigueEffect of lactic acid build up in muscles
EthanolPoison made by yeast during anaerobic respiration

PoisonedWhat happens to yeast cells when the ethanol builds up
FermentationAnother name for anaerobic respiration in yeast
LiverWhere lactic acid is broken down
