Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What gas is released as waste from cellular respiration?
A
Carbon Dioxide
B
Glucose
C
Oxygen
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The process of breakdown of sugar or glucose molecules to release energy with carbon dioxide and water H 2 O . The waste products that are released are carbon dioxide which is exhaled through breathing out and water through sweating and urination.

Detailed explanation-2: -Carbon dioxide, or CO2, is produced in the body during the process of cellular respiration. This is a process in which cells convert oxygen and glucose into the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) cells, the primary carrier of energy in cells. Carbon dioxide is a waste product of this reaction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products.

Detailed explanation-4: -This process, photosynthesis, which occurs in all green plants, converts CO2 and water to carbohydrates, releasing oxygen as a waste product.
