AEROBIC RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Respiration is ____
A
Breaking down food
B
Making noise
C
Inhaling and Exhaling Air
D
Producing energy from glucose
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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. The overall equation for aerobic cellular respiration is: In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP.

Detailed explanation-2: -Respiration is a chemical reaction which occurs in every one of the cells in the human body. It releases energy stored in glucose and without it, these cells would die. Aerobic respiration slowly releases lots of energy stored in glucose .

Detailed explanation-3: -During cellular respiration, NADH and ATP are used to make glucose. ATP synthase acts as both an enzyme and a channel protein. The carbons from glucose end up in ATP molecules at the end of cellular respiration. Energy is stored within the chemical bonds within the glucose molecule.

Detailed explanation-4: -During the process of respiration, oxidation of high energy food substances takes place in the cells of the living organisms to produce energy. The energy released in the process is in the form of the chemical substance called ATP ( Adenosine Triphosphate).

Detailed explanation-5: -During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. Energy released during the reaction is captured by the energy-carrying molecule ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
