Aerobic Energy Production

Aerobic energy is produced through the process called Cellular Respiration.
Aerobic energy is made with the use of air and it occurs in eukaryotic cells.

The word equation for aerobic respiration is:
Glucose and Oxygen -----> Carbon Dioxide, Water, and ATP energy

The chemical equation for aerobic respiration is:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -----> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP energy

Glucose is being broken down and oxygen is being released from the body during aerobic respiration while energy is being made.

I never heard about aerobic energy production until this year in Biology. I really enjoyed the topic a lot because I learned a bunch about how our body works during workouts. A way that this topic can be taken out of the classroom is when a person works out in the gym and they need to keep up with how they produce energy and how much they need to produce to keep going before the body switches over to anaerobic respiration.
