Cellular respiration is a very efficient process through which a lot of energy is generated from a few sugar molecules and oxygen. However, up to two percent of the oxygen used in this process is ...

Oxygen-consuming organisms obtain energy through cellular respiration, which is the transformation of carbohydrates and oxygen into carbon dioxide and water. This process also produces toxic oxygen ...

Plants and trees may seem pretty passive, but behind the scenes, their cells are working hard to put on a magic show. In this episode of Crash Course Botany, we’ll explore how the processes of ...

In my younger years I had maintained a body mass index (BMI) in the category of “normal weight†(in the lower range) without being conscious of my diet and without any help from so-called diet or ...

Many cells can use oxygen or nutrients to generate fuel, and the process is similar in many organisms that use an electron transport chain. But scientists have found that in a tiny organism, things ...

IN “his Croonian Lecture on the “Mechanisms of Cellular Respiration” delivered to the Royal Society on December 13, Prof. D. Keilin, Quick professor of biology and director of the Molteno Institute in ...

Respiration is the cellular process of releasing energy from food and storing it as ATP. Check your knowledge of respiration as part of your National 5 Biology revision.
