Question
what are the products of aerobic respiration?
glucose and oxygen
carbon dioxide, water, and atp
lactic acid and atp
insulin and glycogen
Aerobic respiration is a process that occurs in the presence of oxygen. Glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen. The chemical equation for aerobic respiration is \(C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2
ightarrow6CO_2 + 6H_2O+\text{ATP}\). Glucose and oxygen are reactants (not products), so the first option is wrong. Lactic acid is a product of anaerobic respiration (in animals), so the third option is wrong. Insulin is a hormone and glycogen is a storage polysaccharide, not related to aerobic respiration products, so the fourth option is wrong.
