Aerobic Respiration
Your body needs glucose in order to release energy, which is needed in day-to-day activities. To get this energy, oxygen is needed to convert the glucose into the energy. The word equation for this process is:
The carbon dioxide is breathed out, as it is not needed in the body along with the water, which is breathed out as water vapour.
Diffusion
Diffusion is the movement of particles from a high concentration to a low concentration along a concentration gradient. Please download the podcast and send us a comment on your thoughts.
