Master Factors Affecting the Rate of Respiration fast ⚡ – clear explanations, OCR-aligned.
You’ll cover
• The main environmental and metabolic factors that affect the rate of respiration.
• Effects of low and high temperature on different stages of aerobic respiration.
• Effects of low and high temperature on different stages of anaerobic respiration.
• How substrate concentration affects respiration rate through its effect on glycolysis.
• Why respiration rate increases and then plateaus as substrate concentration rises.
• The role of oxygen availability in determining whether aerobic or anaerobic respiration occurs.
What’s included
• Table outlining the effects of low and high temperatures on each stage of aerobic respiration.
• Table outlining the effects of low and high temperatures on each stage of anaerobic respiration.
• Graph showing the effect of temperature on the rate of respiration.
• Table showing example respiration rates of fruit and vegetable tissues at different temperatures.
• Graph showing the effect of substrate (glucose) concentration on the rate of respiration.
