Detailed explanation-1: -In the cells oxygen is used to break down glucose into carbon dioxide and water as in other organisms.

Detailed explanation-2: -During cellular respiration, oxygen is utilized to break glucose into carbon dioxide, water and energy. Q. During respiration, glucose and oxygen enter our body cells and waste products carbon dioxide and water leave the body cells by the process of: Q.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products. 8. Plants have mitochondria and can perform cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-4: -Just like our digestive system breaks down the food we eat, cells must break down glucose to use it. Cells use oxygen to break down glucose and release its energy during a process called cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-5: -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. The overall equation for aerobic cellular respiration is: In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP.
