Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is NOT a product of cellular respiration?
A
carbon dioxide
B
energy
C
oxygen
D
water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: Oxygen is not a product of respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Anaerobic respiration is a normal part of cellular respiration. Glycolysis, which is the first step in all types of cellular respiration is anaerobic and does not require oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -What are the products of cellular respiration? The final end products of cellular respiration are ATP and H2O. Glycolysis produces two pyruvate molecules, four ATPs (a net of two ATP), two NADH, and two H2O.

Detailed explanation-4: -Water is not produced during anaerobic respiration in unicellular fungus-like yeast. Here, the glucose is incompletely oxidised to form ethanol (C2H5OH) and Carbon dioxide (CO2).

Detailed explanation-5: -The reactants of cellular respiration are oxygen and sugar, which are the products of photosynthesis. Cellular respiration occurs in plant and animal cells. Plants use sunlight during photosynthesis to convert energy from the sun in order to manufacture sugar and the chemical energy ATP and to release oxygen.
