Question

Cellular respiration allows organisms to release the energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose, C6H12O6. The energy in glucose is used to produce ATP, which cells use to supply their energy needs. During aerobic cellular respiration, oxygen is reduced and _________ is produced as a by-product of this specific intermediate reaction.

Answer 1

Aerobic cellular respiration, glucose is metabolised in the presence of oxygen and leads to the formation of energy as a main product. the by products are carbon dioxide and water. The process takes place in four phases: glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

Answer 2

The correct answer is - Water.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a set of biochemical reactions that convert stored energy which is glucose molecule into ATP and water as a byproduct. It takes place in the mitochondria of the cell.

Oxidative phosphorylation is the process in which oxygen convert or transform into water inside the mitochondria. It takes place in inner mitochondrial.

Thus, the correct answer is - water.
