Specific Gravity, also known as SG, is a measurement that determines the density of minerals. Two minerals may be the same size, but their weight may be very different. The specific gravity of a mineral determines how heavy it is by its relative weight to water. The specific gravity value is expressed upon how much greater the weight of the mineral is to an equal amount of water.
Glycolysis is the first step in cellular respiration for both anaerobic and aerobic processes. Glycolysis takes place in the cytosol of a cell. In the cytosol we convert 1 molecule of glucose into 2 molecules of pyruvate.ermentation releases CO 2, but does not make any ATP â all ATP during anaerobic respiration is produced during glycolysis. Since glycolysis produces 2 ATP, anaerobic respiration yields 2 ATP for every molecule of glucose. Both glycolysis and fermentation take place within the cytosol/cytoplasm of a cell.
Describe 2 ways in which cellular respiration is the opposite of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis makes glucose and uses ATP and CO2. Cellular respiration breaks down Glucose, makes ATP and gives off CO2. Explain what happens in the process of fermentation. During the process of fermentation, a partial breakdown of PYRUVIC ACID takes places that makes 2 ATP and ALCOHOL or LACTIC ACID.
