A microorganism is a living organism made up of one or a small number of cells.

Anaerobic cellular respiration is a form of cellular respiration which occurs without oxygen.

Ethanol is a product of anaerobic cellular respiration in microorganisms.

Alcohols are a group of compounds containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.

The process of anaerobic respiration in microorganisms is called fermentation.

Anaerobic cellular respiration and fermentation in microorganisms

Science

Breathing, respiration and gas exchange

The human gas exchange system and breathing

Estimating lung volume

Adaptations of the human lungs for gas exchange

Cellular respiration

Anaerobic cellular respiration in humans

Pupils will learn how producers make glucose using photosynthesis, which is used to make biomass and as a fuel for cellular respiration.

Pupils learned how food is broken down to release useful substances such as sugar.

This unit explores the human gas exchange system, breathing mechanisms, and adaptations for function. It covers aerobic and anaerobic respiration, including fermentation, and compares their processes and implications. Focus is on accuracy, reliable measurements, and SI units.
