Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the equation to show respiration?
A
glucose+oxygen
B
glucose+oxygen
C
glucose+oxygen
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 chemical equation for photosynthesis is 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2. 6CO2+6H2O→C6H12O6+6O2. In plants, the process of photosynthesis takes place in the mesophyll of the leaves, inside the chloroplasts.

Detailed explanation-3: -6O2 + C6H12O6-> 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy is the correct equation for cellular respiration.
