Answer: Cellular respiration is a process by which glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen into carbon dioxide and water in order to generate energy in form of ATP.

Explanation: Cellular respiration is a process by which glucose molecule is oxidized to generate ATP with the release of carbon dioxide and water. Cellular respiration is divided into:

1) glycolysis: A process in which one molecule of glucose broken down into two molecules of pyruvate in a ten enzyme catalyzed reactions.

2) Pyruvate is further oxidized to acetyl CoA

3) Acetyl CoA enters the citric acid or Krebs cycle to generate GTP, NADH and FADH2. Citric acid cycle is an eighth-enzyme catalyzed reaction.

4) FADH2 and NADH enter the electron transport chain where they are further oxidized to generate ATP.

astraxan [27]

Answer: b. fossil fuels are nonrenewable, so humans will run out of them eventually. burning fossil fuels also contributes to global climate change by releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels are limited and we will run out of them eventually. They cannot be replenished in a single human's lifespan. Fossil fuels contribute to the destruction of ecosystems, but not only that. They release carbon dioxide into the atmosphere that warms the Earth. Therefore, anything other than B. would be incorrect.
