Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which is the equation for Respiration?
A
Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water + Heat
B
6CO2 + 12H2O = C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H20
C
C2H12O6 +6O2 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + Heat
D
Carbon Dioxide + Water = Glucose + Oxygen + Water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -This process is called reduction. When those reduced carbon dioxide molecules are combined together in a larger molecule, the result is glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -So, the correct option is ‘Respiration’.

Detailed explanation-3: -In respiration, one glucose molecule is oxidized in the presence of six oxygen molecules to form six carbon dioxide and water molecules. The reaction for respiration can be denoted by the equation: C6H12O6 + 6O2→ 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy.
