Question

How is cellular respiration a chemical process in which the bonds of food and oxygen molecules are broken and the bonds in new molecules are formed resulting in a release of energy

Answer 1

Here is some information you need to answer this question:

Cellular respiration equation:

C6H12O6+6O2 -> 6CO2+6H2O

Cellular respiration breaks the glucose (C6H12O6) molecules for energy and new molecules (CO2 and H2O are formed as byproduct).

Overall, there is a release in energy, but also more so of a net increase of energy.

I hope that helps!
