respiration in cells, not ideal and unnecessarily tedious, aerobic…

- - - - Context: Occurs in human muscle cells during strenuous exercise when oxygen cannot be delivered fast enough.
      - Process: Pyruvate is converted directly into lactic acid.
      - Impact: accumulation of lactic acid causes muscle fatigue and soreness
    - - context: Used by microorganisms like yeast and certain plants
      - process: Pyruvate is broken down into ethanol (alcohol) and carbon dioxide
      - Impact: crucial within the baking and brewing industries
- - - - [scientific findings/method]:
        
        Products like carbon dioxide gas are highly convenient to isolate and quantify, providing a direct measurement of the organism's respiration rate
        
        As products respire, they release CO2. The gas volume can be measured using a glass or plastic Vernier Respirometer or a simple fermentation tube
        
        Capturing a byproduct like gas or observing a color change is much less invasive to the experimental setup than continually extracting the organism's tissue to measure glucose depletion
      - Other considerations/methods {measuring reactant}
        
        oxygen consumption: Utilising PASCO Cellular Respiration equipment or a simple microrespirometer
        
        Glucose Depletion: Frequent liquid extractions and testing strips or Sigma
        
        Aldrich Glucose Assay Tools (very tedious over short period of time)

    - - foam produced
      - gas formed
      - visible changes
- - - - different types of sugar
      - different temperature of water
      - using a balloon to measure amount of of CO2 gas produced (pour yeast, glucose, and water into a bottle, then sealing the lid with a balloon, waiting for the balloon to inflat
      - Methylene Blue, yeast, glucose (colour shifts from colourless to blue)
