Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Carbon dioxide and water are byproducts of cellular respiration
A
true
B
false
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
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: -Carbon dioxide and water are the by-products of cellular respiration-they are substances that are created in cellular respiration but are not needed. When you look at the reactants for cellular respiration, you can see there are various carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen atoms.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration converts ingested nutrients in the form of glucose (C6H12O6) and oxygen to energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). CO2 is produced as a byproduct of this reaction. The O2 needed for cellular respiration is obtained via inhalation.

Detailed explanation-4: -The products of cellular respiration are energy (or ATP), carbon dioxide, and water.

Detailed explanation-5: -Anaerobic respiration is the breakdown of glucose in the absence of oxygen. In yeast, the glucose breaks down anaerobically to produce alcohol as the end product and carbon dioxide gas as the byproduct.
