Question

question 1
cellular respiration is ___.

a series of chemical reactions during which carbon dioxide and water are rearranged to form the energy-rich molecule glucose and oxygen
a series of chemical reactions in which glucose and oxygen react to form carbon dioxide, water, and atp
a series of chemical reactions in which simple sugars react to make carbohydrates

question 2
what does atp stand for?

adenine thymine phosphorus
adenosine triphosphate
adenosine diphosphate

Explanation:

Analyze cellular respiration

Using the Cellular Respiration knowledge point

Cellular respiration is the metabolic process by which cells break down glucose and oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP, releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts.

$$ \text{C}_6\text{H}_{12}\text{O}_6 + 6\text{O}_2 ightarrow 6\text{CO}_2 + 6\text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{ATP} $$

This matches the second option.

Identify ATP abbreviation

Using the ATP Structure knowledge point

ATP is the primary energy carrier in all living organisms. The abbreviation stands for adenosine triphosphate, which consists of an adenine ring, a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups. This matches the second option.

Answer:

Question 1

• a series of chemical reactions during which carbon dioxide and water are rearranged to form the energy-rich molecule glucose and oxygen
• a series of chemical reactions in which glucose and oxygen react to form carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (Correct answer)
• a series of chemical reactions in which simple sugars react to make carbohydrates

Question 2

• adenine thymine phosphorus
• adenosine triphosphate (Correct answer)
• adenosine diphosphate
