Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.
Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: This is an oxidation or combustion reaction, or more specifically, the aerobic respiration equation. Here, the hydrocarbon glucose C6H12O6 C 6 H 12 O 6 is oxidized to give carbon dioxide, water, and energy which are the products of aerobic respiration.
Detailed explanation-3: -C6H12O6 + 6O2-> 6CO2 + 6H2O. Yields 2755 kJ/mole of glucose. The reverse of this reaction – combing carbon dioxide and water to make sugar – is known as photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process responsible for storing all the energy we extract from fossil fuels, crops, and all of our food.
