Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which process may require energy from respiration?
A
movement of carbon dioxide into the alveoli
B
movement of oxygen into red blood cells
C
uptake of glucose by cells in the villi
D
uptake of water by root hair cells
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The energy produced during respiration is used in many different ways, some examples of what it is used for are: Working your muscles. Growth and repair of cells. Building larger molecules from smaller ones i.e. proteins from amino acids.

Detailed explanation-2: -Once glucose is digested and transported to your cells, a process called cellular respiration releases the stored energy and converts it to energy that your cells can use. Cellular respiration consists of three metabolic processes: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

Detailed explanation-3: -In photosynthesis, solar energy is harvested as chemical energy in a process that converts water and carbon dioxide to glucose. Oxygen is released as a byproduct. In cellular respiration, oxygen is used to break down glucose, releasing chemical energy and heat in the process.

Detailed explanation-4: -Photosynthesis makes the glucose that is used in cellular respiration to make ATP. The glucose is then turned back into carbon dioxide, which is used in photosynthesis. While water is broken down to form oxygen during photosynthesis, in cellular respiration oxygen is combined with hydrogen to form water.
