Respiration, of the Cellular Variety

This is our team’s educational presentation on cellular respiration, for our ninth-grade bio-chem class. We didn’t go into creating it knowing much about the subject, but one of the things we wanted to know specifically was about ATP. We kept hearing it, and had no idea that it was adenosine triphosphate, or that if a phosphate was removed it became adenosine diphosphate. One important thing that we learned besides the ATP/ADP thing was that all kingdoms of life use cellular respiration- we do the same thing that bacteria do!

Next time, we will work harder on evaluating the information. In its current state, the review is just three non-interactive questions, which is certainly something that should, in future lessons, be changed.
