Detailed explanation-1: -The gas oxygen is essential to perform cellular respiration and obtain energy from your food. During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose reacts with oxygen, forming ATP that can be used by the cell. Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts.
Detailed explanation-2: -The raw materials required for aerobic cellular respiration are respiratory substrates (glucose, fatty acids, amino acids, or organic acids) and oxygen but in the case of anaerobic respiration raw material is respiratory substrate only.
Detailed explanation-3: -Respiration is the movement of oxygen from the outside environment to the cells within tissues, and the removal of carbon dioxide in the opposite direction. In respiration, the oxygen liberated by plants is used by the body to produce energy. Q.
Detailed explanation-4: -Oxygen is required in the cellular respiration in the electron transporter chain. It serves as the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain facilitating the movement of electrons down the chain hence producing the ATP or adenosine triphosphate.
