Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen and glucose are both reactants in the process of cellular respiration. The main product of cellular respiration is ATP; waste products include carbon dioxide and water.
Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose is the molecule normally used for respiration-it is the main respiratory substrate . Glucose is oxidised to release its energy, which is then stored in ATP molecules. Respiration is a series of chemical reactions, but this equation summarises the overall process.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glycolysis takes place in the cytosol, the citric acid cycle occurs in the mitochondrial matrix, and oxidative phosphorylation occurs on the inner mitochondrial membrane. The starting reactants of cellular respiration include glucose, ATP, and NAD+; and the final products include ATP and H2O.
