What can be broken down and used in cellular respiration?
A
Glycogen
B
Glucose
C
Glycerol
D
Glycerine
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Most carbohydrates enter cellular respiration during glycolysis. In some cases, entering the pathway simply involves breaking a glucose polymer down into individual glucose molecules. For instance, the glucose polymer glycogen is made and stored in both liver and muscle cells in our bodies.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration is a physical process by which mitochondria breaks down glucose in the presence of oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration is the aerobic process by which living cells break down glucose molecules, release energy, and form molecules of ATP . Generally speaking, this three-stage process involves glucose and oxygen reacting to form carbon dioxide and water.
