Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which of the following is a product of cellular respiration?
A
Glucose
B
Carbon Dioxide
C
Oxygen
D
Radiant Energy
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts. 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-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: -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: -The first product made during cellular respiration is a gas called carbon dioxide. This gas is released from the body when we breathe out. Carbon dioxide is made up of two oxygen atoms and one carbon atom. The carbon atoms come from the glucose molecule found in the food you eat.

Detailed explanation-5: -During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water.
