Detailed explanation-1: -Which explains why it is important to eat a full healthy meal before an afternoon of playing sports? Food provides the carbon dioxide that is a product of cellular respiration. Food provides the oxygen that is a product of cellular respiration. Food provides the glucose that is a reactant in cellular respiration.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that uses glucose to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an organic compound the body can use for energy. One molecule of glucose can produce a net of 30-32 ATP.
Detailed explanation-3: -Glucose is a 6-carbon structure with the chemical formula C6H12O6. It is a ubiquitous source of energy for every organism in the world and is essential to fuel both aerobic and anaerobic cellular respiration.
Detailed explanation-4: -The purpose of cellular respiration is simple: it provides cells with the energy they need to function. If living things could not get the energy they need out of food, it would be absolutely worthless. All living things would eventually die, no matter the quality and amount of food.
Detailed explanation-5: -During cellular respiration, the reactants-glucose (sugar) and oxygen-combine together to form new products: carbon dioxide molecules and water molecules.
