Cellular Respiration Intro

Friday we had our daily question quiz and watched the following crash course as an introduction to the next section.

We then listened to the following podcast about how much oxygen the average person breathes in a day.

This led you guys to come up with the question "So basically this is saying that we are extremely inefficient"  You BET ya!!!  But we will talk more about how you can increase the amount of Oxygen that you actually can absorb in any given breath.

You started right into notes on Friday and continued with them today.

I didn't have you write out all of these formulas but pointed out all of the different enzymes involved in this ONE biochemical pathway.

We talked about the different products that are produced by fermentation and then you watched the following clip about endurance athletes and how they build up their VO2 max.
