Question

1. site of glycolysis
2. gaseous reactant of cellular respiration
3. this molecule is broken down in glycolysis
4. glucose and oxygen are the ______ of cellular respiration
5. the krebs cycle takes place in this part of the mitochondria
6. the number of carbon dioxide or water molecules produced by 1 molecule of glucose during cellular respiration

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze Question 14

The question is about what glucose and oxygen are in cellular respiration. In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are the reactants (the substances that start the reaction) that are used to produce energy, carbon dioxide, and water. So we need to recall the role of glucose and oxygen in cellular respiration.

Step2: Determine the Term

The process of cellular respiration has reactants (glucose and oxygen) and products (carbon dioxide, water, and ATP). So glucose and oxygen are the reactants of cellular respiration. Wait, but let's check the question again: "glucose and oxygen are the ____ of cellular respiration". The correct term here is "reactants"? Wait, no, maybe "substrates" or "reactants". Wait, but let's see the context. Wait, maybe the question is asking for the role. Wait, no, let's re - read. The question is "glucose and oxygen are the ____ of cellular respiration". In cellular respiration, the overall equation is \(C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2
ightarrow6CO_2 + 6H_2O+ATP\). So glucose and oxygen are the reactants (the starting materials) for cellular respiration. But maybe the term here is "reactants" or "substrates". Wait, but let's check the options? Wait, no, the user's image has a fill - in - the - blank. Wait, maybe the answer is "reactants". Wait, but let's confirm. Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down glucose in the presence of oxygen to produce energy. So glucose and oxygen are the reactants (the substances that undergo the reaction) in cellular respiration.

Step3: Analyze Question 15

Question 15: "the Krebs cycle takes place in this part of the mitochondria". The Krebs cycle (also known as the citric acid cycle) takes place in the matrix of the mitochondria. So we need to recall the location of the Krebs cycle within the mitochondrion. The mitochondria has an outer membrane, inner membrane, intermembrane space, and matrix. The Krebs cycle occurs in the matrix.

Step4: Analyze Question 17

Question 17: "the number of carbon dioxide or water molecules produced by 1 molecule of glucose during cellular respiration". From the cellular respiration equation \(C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2
ightarrow6CO_2 + 6H_2O+ATP\), for one molecule of glucose, 6 molecules of carbon dioxide and 6 molecules of water are produced. So we use the balanced chemical equation of cellular respiration to find the number of \(CO_2\) and \(H_2O\) molecules produced. The balanced equation shows that 6 \(CO_2\) and 6 \(H_2O\) are produced per glucose molecule.

Answer:

For Question 14: reactants (or substrates, but based on the equation, reactants)
For Question 15: matrix (of the mitochondria)
For Question 17: 6 (for both carbon dioxide and water molecules, as per \(C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2
ightarrow6CO_2 + 6H_2O+ATP\))
