Question

choose the correct answer. which energy - releasing process that occurs in both animals and plants uses oxygen and glucose as reactants and releases carbon dioxide, water, and heat as byproducts? homeostasis combustion respiration

Explanation:

• Homeostasis: It is the process by which organisms maintain a stable internal environment. It is not an energy - releasing process that uses oxygen and glucose as reactants.
• Combustion: Combustion is a chemical reaction that occurs at high temperatures. It is not a biological process that occurs in both animals and plants.
• Respiration: Cellular respiration is a biological process that occurs in both animals and plants. In this process, oxygen and glucose are used as reactants, and carbon dioxide, water, and heat (in the form of ATP) are released as by - products.

Answer:

respiration
