Which component is missing from the process of cellular respiration? Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + ________ + Energy

Respuesta :

Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon Dioxide + ________ + Energy 

C6 H12 O6 +  O2     
→    CO2    +   H2O  + Energy 

The component that is missing is Water


The answer is: Water.

Chemical reaction of cellular respiration (convert biochemical energy):

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O.  

glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy .  

This reaction is exothermic (energy is released).  

Carbon dioxide and water are released during cellular respiration.  

In cellular respiration where organic matter is transformed into carbon dioxide and energy is released for production of ATP.

Glucose and oxygen are reactants and carbon dioxide, water and energy are products of this chemical reaction; cellular respiration creates an energy molecule (ATP) when glucose is broken down.
