Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is the correct equation for cellular respiration?
A
6O2 + C6H12O6
B
6O2 + C6H12O6 + Energy
C
6CO2 + 6H2O
D
6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration can be summarized as follows: C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + Energy (38ATP)

Detailed explanation-2: -The equation for cellular respiration is the complete opposite of photosynthesis: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP where carbon dioxide is the waste product.

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: This is an oxidation or combustion reaction, or more specifically, the aerobic respiration equation. Here, the hydrocarbon glucose C6H12O6 C 6 H 12 O 6 is oxidized to give carbon dioxide, water, and energy which are the products of aerobic respiration.
