What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?
|
|
Glucose + Oxygen
|
|
|
Oxygen + Carbon dioxide + Energy
|
|
|
Carbon dioxide + Glucose
|
|
|
Water + Carbon dioxide + Energy
|
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: -So, the correct option is ‘Respiration’.
Detailed explanation-3: -The overall equation for aerobic cellular respiration is: In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are released as byproducts. The three stages of aerobic cellular respiration are glycolysis (an anaerobic process), the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
