Which of the following is an accurate equation for this process of aerobic respiration?
|
|
Glucose + Carbon Dioxide
|
|
|
Oxygen + Carbon Dioxide
|
|
|
Water + Energy + Sugar
|
|
|
Glucose + Oxygen
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -glucose + oxygen ⟶ carbon dioxide + water.
Detailed explanation-2: -The chemical equation is C6H12O6-> 2C3H6O3 (Glucose-> Lactic acid). The lactic acid then needs to be oxidised later to carbon dioxide and water afterwards to prevent it building up.
Detailed explanation-3: -Aerobic respiration uses the oxygen gathered during the process of breathing to breakdown glucose (sugars) from food to carbon dioxide, water and energy.
Detailed explanation-4: -Aerobic respiration is the release of energy from glucose or another organic substrate in the presence of oxygen. The word aerobic means, in air, but it is the oxygen in the air which is necessary for aerobic respiration. More items
