Anaerobic Respiration & Fermentation Lecture Materials
These
are the Anaerobic Respiration Lecture materials of the Virtual Cell
Biology Classroom. The resources below are used to supplement an actual
college cell biology course. Anyone taking, teaching or interested in
biology may find these materials helpful and is welcome to use them.
The Anaerobic Respiration & Fermentation Lecture materials include:
- a list of learning objectives
- a term paper metabolism assignment
- links to additional educational resources
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION LECTURE LEARNING OBJECTIVES
- Understand what fermentation is and how it differs from both anaerobic and aerobic respiration.
- Which types of metabolism are most energy efficient & least energy efficient?
- Which respiration sub-pathway(s) is involved in fermentation?
- How many ATP molecules can an organism that uses fermentation create from one molecule of glucose?
All of the lecture PowerPoints used in the Virtual Cell Biology Classroom have fill-in-the-blanks on many of the slides to encourage students to pay attention and follow along during the presentation. Instructors, contact us for the information that goes in the blanks.
HELPFUL TIPS: Some of the PowerPoint presentations are large files and may take a few moments to download, depending on the speed of your internet connection. If you are printing a hard copy of the PowerPoint, you can save paper by selecting Handouts (rather than Slides) in the "Print What:" drop down menu of the PPT print screen. Then you can choose the number of slides you want to have on each printed page. If the printed PPT presentation is to be used as student notes, it is best to choose handouts with 2 or 3 slides per page.
Word document of a single essay question given to students at the end of lecture. This tool helps the students review the main messages of the lecture while allowing the instructor to assess the class' understanding of the material.
ANAEROBIC RESPIRATION CLASS NOTES
Here are brief summaries of some of the various subtopics and concepts introduced in this lecture, kind of like really good class notes.
Questions designed to help you review the material in the Anaerobic Respiration Lecture.
Word document instructions for writing a paper on the relationship between metabolism and nutrition. Allows students to choose one of three options. The Calorie King website has a food database to help you with finding grams of carbohydrates, fiber, protein & fats of common food items, for Option 1 of this project.
