Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What are the reactants for Cell Respiration?
A
CO2 + H20
B
Sugar + CO2
C
Sugar + O2
D
CO2 + H20 + 38 ATP
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen and glucose are both reactants in the process of cellular respiration. The main product of cellular respiration is ATP; waste products include carbon dioxide and water.

Detailed explanation-2: -The reactants of cellular respiration are oxygen and sugar, which are the products of photosynthesis. Cellular respiration occurs in plant and animal cells. Plants use sunlight during photosynthesis to convert energy from the sun in order to manufacture sugar and the chemical energy ATP and to release oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are released as byproducts.

Detailed explanation-4: -Explanation: Oxygen is neither a product nor reactant in glycolysis. Glycolysis is unique in that it takes place within the cytoplasm of the cell and does not require oxygen. It is an anaerobic reaction that produces pyruvate, NAD, and ATP.

Detailed explanation-5: -The reactants for cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen. Glucose is a sugar molecule that is produced by plants through the process of photosynthesis. Plants use the sun’s energy to form glucose from carbon dioxide and water, and energy is stored within the bonds of glucose.
