What is the correct formula for cellular respiration?
A
H2O+CO2+sunlight
B
CO2+ sunlight + O2
C
O2+ C6H12O6
D
O2+ C6H12O6
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6 O 2–> 6 CO 2 + 6 H 2 O + ATP is the complete balanced chemical formula for cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration can be summarized as follows: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy (38ATP)

Detailed explanation-4: -Carbon dioxide + Water Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen CO2 + H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 Cellular respiration or aerobic respiration is a series of chemical reactions which begin with the reactants of sugar in the presence of oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water as waste products.

Detailed explanation-5: -The equation for cellular respiration is the complete opposite of photosynthesis: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP where carbon dioxide is the waste product.
