Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Complete this sentence:Most living things use ____ to make ____ from glucose.
A
oxygen, ATP
B
ADP, oxygen
C
NADH, NAD+
D
oxygen, NAD+
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The cells of most living things produce ATP from glucose by aerobic cellular respiration, which uses oxygen. Some organisms instead produce ATP from glucose by anaerobic respiration, which does not require oxygen. An important way of making ATP without oxygen is fermentation .

Detailed explanation-2: -Most living things use glucose to make ATP from oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration can occur both aerobically (using oxygen), or anaerobically (without oxygen). 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-4: -ATP is also formed from the process of cellular respiration in the mitochondria of a cell. This can be through aerobic respiration, which requires oxygen, or anaerobic respiration, which does not. Aerobic respiration produces ATP (along with carbon dioxide and water) from glucose and oxygen.

Detailed explanation-5: -The metabolic cycle that provides the highest net ATP per glucose molecule is oxidative phosphorylation.
