Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
____ is a high-energy carbohydrate that is digested during cell respiration to produce ATP.
A
Insulin
B
Cellulose
C
Glucose
D
Glycogen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration is the process by which the energy in food is converted into energy that can be used by the body’s cells. The energy stored in glucose is transferred to ATP. The process can be summarized as: glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide + water.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose in the blood is taken up into your body’s cells and used to produce a fuel molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP) through a series of complex processes known as cellular respiration. Cells can then use ATP to power a variety of metabolic tasks.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that uses glucose to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an organic compound the body can use for energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Energy released in the breakdown of glucose is used to generate ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP is a high energy molecule that is used to power cell processes.
