Answer 1

Carbon dioxide

Step-by-step explanation:

Cellular respiration is given by the equation; glucose + oxygen  carbon dioxide + water + energy

C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 or 38 ATP

It has three phases; glycolysis that occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell then Krebs cycle that occurs in the matrix mitochondria then electron transport chain that occurs in the intermembrane space of the mitochondria.
