What is the word equation for Cellular Respiration?
A
carbon dioxide + energy
B
oxygen + glucose + water
C
oxygen + glucose
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic respiration takes place in the mitochondria and requires oxygen and glucose, and produces carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The chemical equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O (glucose + oxygen-> carbon dioxide + water).

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The word equation for aerobic respiration is: glucose + oxygen–> water + carbon dioxide + energy (in the form of ATP). Around 36 ATP molecules are produced.

Detailed explanation-3: -The word equation for respiration is: Glucose + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide and Water The chemical equation is C6H1206 + O2 = CO2 + H20 Respiration is used by all living humans and animals, to make energy for movement, heat and to keep vital organs running, without it we’d be dead.

Detailed explanation-4: -The word equation for aerobic respiration is glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy.

Detailed explanation-5: -When one molecule of glucose is burnt in presence of excess oxygen then it is converted to 6 molecules of carbon dioxide gas and 6 molecules of water vapor. The balanced chemical equation is C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)→6CO2+6H2O.
