Gaseous Exchange and Respiration

Learners will demonstrate understanding of respiratory structures in animals (insects, fish, humans) and plants, and the processes of aerobic and anaerobic respiration. They will explore the effects of air pollutants, investigate CO2 production, and apply respiration knowledge to everyday contexts like baking and brewing. This topic is central to the ECZ syllabus, with questions on energy release, health, and environmental biology. It aligns with the CBC's emphasis on practical science and real-world applications.
