CELL RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following best explains the affect of cell respiration?
A
Oxygen is released into the atmosphere
B
Carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere
C
Glucose is released into the atmosphere
D
ATP is released into the atmosphere
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen to make carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. The molecule ATP is used for energy to run cellular processes. Carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere where it is used in photosynthesis by plants. The process of photosynthesis uses ATP for energy to build glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -During the process of cellular respiration, carbon dioxide is given off as a waste product. This carbon dioxide can be used by photosynthesizing cells to form new carbohydrates. Also in the process of cellular respiration, oxygen gas is required to serve as an acceptor of electrons.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: Cellular respiration is best described as E) changing of stored chemical energy in food molecules to a form usable by organisms.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The stage of cellular respiration in which carbon dioxide release takes place is the citric acid cycle. Aerobic cellular respiration has three steps, glycolysis, the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain.

Detailed explanation-5: -During the process of respiration, oxygen is utilized, and carbon dioxide, water and energy are released as products.
