Question

The process of cellular respiration, which converts simple sugars such as glucose into co2 and water, is an example of _____. see concept 8.1 (page 144) the process of cellular respiration, which converts simple sugars such as glucose into co2 and water, is an example of _____. see concept 8.1 (page 144) an endergonic pathway a pathway in which the entropy of the system decreases a catabolic pathway a pathway that occurs in animal cells but not plant cells

Answer 1

I strongly believe that cellular respiration is a catabolic pathway. Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondrion of a cell, it involves conversion of biochemical energy in nutrients mainly glucose to energy in the form of ATP coupled by release of water and Carbon dioxide. Catabolic reactions are type of metabolic reactions that involves formation of large molecules from small molecules, the opposite of anabolic reactions.
