Question

Given the overall equation for respiration (C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 +
6H2O), in which step(s) in the respiratory pathway is/are each of the
reactants used up and each of the products made?

Accepted Answer

AEROBIC RESPIRATION TAKES PLACE IN THE MITOCHONDRIA AND REQUIRES OXYGEN AND GLUCOSE, AND PRODUCES CARBON DIOXIDE, WATER, AND ENERGY. THE CHEMICAL EQUATION IS C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2​O + ATP (GLUCOSE + OXYGEN -> CARBON DIOXIDE + WATER + ATP).SO, THE CORRECT OPTION IS 'RESPIRATION'.

Expert's answer

Aerobic respiration takes place in the Mitochondria and requires Oxygen and Glucose, and produces Carbon dioxide, water, and energy. The chemical equation is C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP (Glucose + Oxygen -> Carbon dioxide + water + ATP).So, the correct option is 'Respiration'.
