What are thesimilarities and differences between respiration & burning?

Respiration is the process by which an organism obtains energy by reacting oxygen with glucose to give water, carbon dioxide and ATP (energy). Respiration is commonly confused with breathing, but they are not the same. Respiration takes place on a cellular level whereas breathing is on a different level. Respiration takes place in the mitochondria of the cells and provide the cells with energy.\n\nRespiration also takes place in plants, where they respire the products of photosynthesis - oxygen and glucose to give energy, water and carbon dioxide. The chemical process involved is identical to burning in that oxygen reacts with carbon-based substances releasing energy. Unlike burning, respiration is slower and more controlled.

burning is atmospheric OXIDATION

Breathing- intake of O2 and exhaling CO\nEating- converting foods to sugars to energy

breathing is just lungs.  respiration has to do with the blood getting oxygen.\n\nand there are 2 types of respiration too.  one with chemistry.  not sure about that one.

With expiration, i.e. breathing out, Carbon Dioxide is expelled from the lungs and with Inspiration, i.e. breathing in, Oxygen is taken into the lungs. So Oxygen level increases and Carbon Diooxide level decreases in the body. The dry mass however, decreases, as it is burnt to produce energy in form of ATP with the help of the oxygen.

Pure bunk. .Much like aliens ,never observed in real time . Post event finds a severly burnt corpse but fire started by smoking etc. ,then ignition of body's fat reserves causes an intense , but local fire until fat gone ,then fire dies out .The Nazis burnt their victims this way when they  built a small fire ,added corpses ,and then when fat melted it sustained the flames

The process of combustion, or burning, is simply combining something with oxygen very rapidly, in a reaction that releases heat. When hydrogen burns, the result is water, which is just fully oxidized hydrogen. In effect, water is the "ash" of burned hydrogen. \n\nAnd like all other forms of ash, because water is already fully oxidized, it can no longer accept oxygen, and therefore cannot burn.

Fire is what is called a "redox reaction."  This is where atoms exchange electrons, truning high energy bonds into low energy bonds (or orbitals).  Every redox reaction needs an oxidizer (which takes electrons) and a reducer (which gives up electrons).  In a normal fire, oxygen acts as the electron-accepter.  Carbohydrates (wood, sugar, oil, coal, etc) usually acts as the reducer (ie the electron donor).\n\nO2 takes away electrons and becomes CO2, meaning that the oxygen gets consumed in the burning process.  So really, both the oxygen and the fuel are burning, because they both release energy and end up changed by the process.

any sort of oxidizer, sugar by itself will "burn", but as you may have learned it isnt complete combustion without a large amount of extra o2 being present.  could have been a permanganate (barium permanganate, magnesium permanganate), however if you hope to acquire some of this yourself, it might be a little hard to come by.  you could always use nitrous oxide too :) N20

Burning is a chemical change. Oxygen reacts with the material that you burn and converts it into the corresponding oxide. You start with one chemical and end up with another in the burning process. In the case of boiling, a liquid is converted into gaseous (vapour) state. Here the material is same; only its physical form is different before and after boiling. Hence it is a physical change.

For the most part, fire is a mixture of hot gases. Flames are the result of a chemical reaction, primarily between oxygen in air and a fuel, such as wood or propane. In addition to other products, the reaction produces carbon dioxide, steam, light, and heat. If the flame is hot enough, the gases are ionized and become yet another state of matter: plasma.

Breathing, the process whereby an organism (living thing) obtains oxygen from its surroundings, to take part in internal chemical reactions which break down food to release energy. Breathing also usually gives out waste carbon dioxide as an unwanted by-product of these reactions. Breathing is one aspect of respiration, which is a term that includes both physically obtaining oxygen, and also using it in chemical pathways inside cells to release energy—the process of cellular respiration\n\nMany aquatic animals obtain oxygen dissolved in the water by muscle-powered movements, such as when the forward motion of a fish or the pumping actions of its mouth and throat force a flow of water over its gills ( See also Fish). This is underwater breathing. Tiny organisms “breathe” by the process of passive seepage or diffusion of oxygen through their body surfaces. Plants also obtain oxygen by diffusion from the air or water around them, usually into the leaves.

There really is no difference between the two phrases. Burning a copy is just geek speak or slang for copying a disc. As far as the program, yes, there are several programs that will allow you to Burn a copy. There should be a version on your computer, the one that came with your DVD Burner. Hope this answers your question.

It is a pity that these terms were ever used since they cause confusion.\n'External respiration' really describes breathing - ventilation of the lungs. So why not just refer to it as breathing?\nGas exchange is what happens at a respiratory surface, which in the case of lungs is the alveolar surfaces.\n'Internal respiration' describes the biochemical processes inside individual cells where glucose is respired to provide energy (in ATP molecules). This process uses oxygen and makes carbon dioxide.\n\nAll living things respire.\nOnly some breathe.
