Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The waste gas given off by aerobic respiration is?
A
oxygen
B
carbon dioxide
C
nitrogen
D
methane
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts. 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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Aerobic respiration breaks down glucose and combines the broken down products with oxygen, making water and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is a waste product of aerobic respiration because cells do not need it.

Detailed explanation-3: -The nose, throat, and lungs are just a few parts of the body that make up the respiratory system. They work together to bring oxygen into the body and take carbon dioxide (a waste product) out.

Detailed explanation-4: -Anaerobic respiration takes place in the absence or lack of oxygen so oxygen isn’t taken in. The product of anaerobic respiration is lactic acid an energy. Carbon dioxide is not given out.

Detailed explanation-5: -Answer and Explanation: The stage of cellular respiration in which carbon dioxide release takes place is the citric acid cycle. Aerobic cellular respiration has three steps, glycolysis, the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain.
