Respiration
Present in mitochondria
Anaerobic Respiration
Present in muscles
Too much lactic acid can cause cramps
Yeast Fermentation
Advantage
Cell membranes of respiratory surface are always moist
Disadvantage
Less concentration of O2
High temp, high salinity= low O2 conc
Ventilation
Binds O2 reversibly
Loads O2 from respiratory organ; unloads in other parts of the
body
Hemocyanin- found in hemolymph of arthropods
and many mollusks
Copper- acts as the oxygen-binding component
Hemoglobin- respiratory pigment of all vertebrates
Hemoglobin
