Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The word equation for respiration is:
A
Carbon dioxide + Water
B
Glucose + Oxygen
C
Carbon Dioxide + Oxygen + Water
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The chemical equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O (glucose + oxygen-> carbon dioxide + water).

Detailed explanation-2: -The word equation for respiration is: Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide and Water The chemical equation is C6H1206 + O2 = CO2 + H20 Respiration is used by all living humans and animals, to make energy for movement, heat and to keep vital organs running, without it we’d be dead.

Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy (38 ATP)

Detailed explanation-4: -The balanced version is: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2.) In simple terms: carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen. This is photosynthesis, and without it, there likely would be no plants or animals.

Detailed explanation-5: -C6H12O6(aq) + 6O2(g) →6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l)
