The discussion centers around the equation for aerobic respiration and the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration. It touches on basic biological concepts and seeks clarification on these topics.

Discussion Character

  • Conceptual clarification
  • Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant asks for the equation for aerobic respiration and the differences between aerobic and anaerobic respiration.
  • Another participant humorously suggests using Google for answers, implying that the questions may be too basic for the forum.
  • A participant expresses feelings of rejection for asking what they perceive as simple questions, indicating a concern about the forum's focus on complex topics.
  • There is a suggestion that questions like these are typically posted in the Science Education zone for quicker responses.
  • A participant offers to look up information on Google and thanks others for their responses.
  • Another participant reiterates the importance of understanding the terms "aerobic" and "anaerobic" and suggests using Wikipedia for definitions and further details.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Sorry, were my questions too simple? I guess I'll just have to accept that this forum is for those with ultimate scientific knowledge, coming up with intricate topics producing complex equations. :wink:

I feel rejected. :frown:

But seriously, you're absolutely right... :rolleyes:

aww, now I feel bad. :frown:

These shouldn't be to hard to find though. Take a look on google, and if you find the information and you have questions about it, post back. Typically, questions like these are posted in the Science Education zone, though. That usually gets you a faster response. https://www.physicsforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=152
 
Don't worry about it. ;)

I'll take a look on Google and see what I can find. Thanks.

The key word are aerobic and anaerobic. For google, use the define function or use wikipedia for some quick info that may help you find more detail answers.
