Respiration in Animals

*Aerobic respiration

Glucose
oxygen
> Co2 + h2o +energy

*Anaerobic Respiration

Glucose
no oxygen
> Alcohal+co2+energy

Q1 Each cell of an organism performs certain functions
such as nutrition, transport, excretion and reproduction.
To perform these functions, the cell needs energy

Q2 Same as Ncert

Q3 As the lungs expand, air is drawn in through the nose

and mouth and flows through the trachea to the lungs.
During exhalation, the diaphragm and intercostal muscles
relax. This decreases the amount of space in the thoracic
cavity and the lungs compress

Q4 Same as NCERT

Q6 Gills are feathery organs full of blood vessels. A fish
breathes by taking water into its mouth and forcing it out
through the gill passages. As water passes over the thin
walls of the gills, dissolved oxygen moves into the blood
and travels to the fish's cells.

Q7 Insects have a network of tubes (tracheal tubes) to

transport atmospheric air within the body. These openings
lesad to trachae. The cells exchange O2/CO2 directly with
the air in the spiracles present on insects body.

Q9. (a)Ans: -The process of breakdown of food in the cell

with the release of energy is called cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration takes place in the cells of all
organisms. In the cell, the food (glucose) is broken down
into carbon dioxide and water using oxygen.
Q9. (b) Ans: - Breathing rate is the number of times a
person breathes per minute. During the process of
breathing, both inhalation and exhalation take place
alternately. An inhalation that is followed by an exhalation
is known as breath.

Q10.Ans: - Cellular Respiration and Burning (Combustion):

Cellular respiration resembles ordinary combustion or
burning in the breakdown of chemical bonds, use of
oxygen, production of carbon dioxide, and release of
energy, but there are some fundamental differences
between the two processes.
