Detailed explanation-1: -Carbon dioxide + Water Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen CO2 + H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 Cellular respiration or aerobic respiration is a series of chemical reactions which begin with the reactants of sugar in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water as waste products.
Detailed explanation-2: -During cellular respiration, the reactants-glucose (sugar) and oxygen-combine together to form new products: carbon dioxide molecules and water molecules. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is produced as the form of energy that can be used for other cellular processes.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -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.
Detailed explanation-5: -The overall chemical reaction for cellular respiration is one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) and six molecules of oxygen (O2) yields six molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2) and six molecules of water (H2O).
