Question

which of these are by - products of cellular respiration?
heat, carbon dioxide, and water
carbon dioxide and water
glucose, carbon dioxide, and water
atp and carbon dioxide
atp, carbon dioxide, and water

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down glucose to produce energy. The chemical equation for cellular respiration is \(C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2
ightarrow6CO_2 + 6H_2O+\text{ATP}+\text{heat}\). Here, glucose (\(C_6H_{12}O_6\)) and oxygen (\(O_2\)) are reactants. The main product is ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which is the energy - currency of the cell. Carbon dioxide (\(CO_2\)) and water (\(H_2O\)) are waste products (by - products). Heat is also released as a by - product during the energy - conversion process in cellular respiration.

Answer:

heat, carbon dioxide, and water
