RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
whats the formula for respiration
A
6co2+6h2o+energy ____ c6h12o2+602
B
c6h12o6+02 ____ co2+h2o+ATP
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The chemical equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O (glucose + oxygen-> carbon dioxide + water).

Detailed explanation-2: -In respiration, one glucose molecule is oxidized in the presence of six oxygen molecules to form six carbon dioxide and water molecules. The reaction for respiration can be denoted by the equation: C6H12O6 + 6O2→ 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy.

Detailed explanation-3: -Waste materials like CO2 and water vapours are produced during this process. Cellular respiration can be summarized as follows: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy (38ATP)

Detailed explanation-4: -The reaction C 6 H 12 O 6 ( aq ) + 6 O 2 ( g ) → 6 CO 2 ( g ) + 6 H 2 O ( l ) + ∆ Glucose Oxygen carbon water heat dioxide is exothermic.
