Question

what resources are needed for cellular respiration to occur? carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight water, carbon dioxide, and atp glucose and carbon dioxide glucose and oxygen

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a process that breaks down glucose in the presence of oxygen to produce energy (ATP), carbon dioxide, and water. The formula for aerobic cellular respiration is \(C_6H_{12}O_6 + 6O_2
ightarrow6CO_2 + 6H_2O+ \text{Energy (ATP)}\). So, glucose and oxygen are the reactants (resources needed for the process to occur).

• Carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight are resources for photosynthesis (not cellular respiration).
• Water and carbon dioxide are products (in most cases, water is also used in some steps but the key reactants are glucose and oxygen), and ATP is the product (energy currency) of cellular respiration, not a reactant resource for the process to start.
• Glucose and carbon dioxide: Carbon dioxide is a product in aerobic cellular respiration, not a reactant.

Answer:

Glucose and oxygen.
