RESPIRATORY SYSTEM

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Cellular respiration uses glucose and ____ to make energy.
A
carbon dioxide
B
glucose
C
oxygen
D
mitochondria
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose reacts with oxygen, forming ATP that can be used by the cell. 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.

Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that uses glucose to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an organic compound the body can use for energy. One molecule of glucose can produce a net of 30-32 ATP.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen, which have high levels of energy, and releases CO2 and water, which have low levels of free energy.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cellular respiration is the name for the series of biochemical reactions which enables living organisms to turn food molecules into energy. The primary fuel for cellular respiration is a molecule of glucose, which is used to make energy.
