Question

along with oxygen, which other reactant is needed for cellular respiration? * 1 point (this reactant is labeled chemical a in the equation below)
a + 6 o₂ → 6 b + 6 c + atp
options: water, nitrate, glucose, carbon dioxide
what does the term atp stand for? *
options: activated triphosphate, arginine triphosphorus, adenosine triphosphate, arginine triple phosphide

Explanation:

First Question:

The equation for cellular respiration is \( \text{Glucose} + 6\text{O}_2
ightarrow 6\text{CO}_2 + 6\text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{ATP} \). So the reactant (Chemical A) along with oxygen is glucose. Water is a product, nitrate is not a reactant of cellular respiration, and carbon dioxide is a product.

ATP is the energy - carrying molecule in cells. Its full name is Adenosine Triphosphate. The other options are incorrect: "Activated Triphosphate" is not the correct term, "Arginine Triphosphorus" and "Arginine Triple Phosphide" are not related to ATP's structure or naming.

Answer:

Glucose (the option with "Glucose")
