Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The waste products of cellular respiration consists of
A
Oxygen and Water
B
Oxygen and Glucose
C
Carbon Dioxide and Oxygen
D
Carbon Dioxide and Water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process of breakdown of sugar or glucose molecules to release energy with carbon dioxide and water H 2 O . The waste products that are released are carbon dioxide which is exhaled through breathing out and water through sweating and urination.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of a living organism. In this process, carbon dioxide and water are released as waste. It is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose to produce ATP.

Detailed explanation-4: -To form the glucose the reaction is carried out between six molecules of carbon dioxide and six molecules of water which forms a glucose and six molecules of oxygen. Then, this oxygen which formed during formation of glucose is treated as a waste product.

Detailed explanation-5: -Water itself is not a waste product – it is a mechanism by which the body removes waste. We lose water in four principal ways: in urine, sweat, breath and faeces.
