Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration or respiration is the process by which cells breakdown glucose to release energy. Carbon dioxide and water are also released in the process. This can happen in the presence or absence of oxygen. When respiration takes place in the presence of oxygen, it is called aerobic respiration.
Detailed explanation-2: -The metabolic breakdown of glucose (C6H12O6) (MW:180.156 g/mol) is given by the following equation: C6H12O6 (s) + 6 O2 (g) → 6 CO2 (g) + 6 H2O (l)
