Question

in cellular respiration, which of the following are products?
□ a) co₂
□ b) o₂
□ c) h₂o
□ d) energy
□ e) c₆h₁₂o₆

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down glucose (\(C_6H_{12}O_6\)) in the presence of oxygen (\(O_2\)) to produce carbon dioxide (\(CO_2\)), water (\(H_2O\)), and energy. The equation for cellular respiration is \(C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2
ightarrow6CO_2+6H_2O + energy\). So, \(CO_2\), \(H_2O\), and energy are products. \(O_2\) is a reactant and \(C_6H_{12}O_6\) is also a reactant (the substrate for the process).

Answer:

A. \(CO_2\), C. \(H_2O\), D. energy
