Which of the following is the correct equation for CELLULAR RESPIRATION?
|
|
6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP
|
|
|
6CO2 + C6H12O6 + 6H2O
|
|
|
6O2 + 6H2O + ATP
|
|
|
C6H12O6 + 6O2
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -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-2: -Cellular respiration can be summarized as follows: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy (38ATP)
Detailed explanation-3: -The equation for cellular respiration is the complete opposite of photosynthesis: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP where carbon dioxide is the waste product.
Detailed explanation-4: -C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2–> 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + ATP is the complete balanced chemical formula for cellular respiration.
