Answer: As a product

Explanation:

It acts as a product, the glucose bonds are broken apart – releasing the chemical energy stored in it. Cellular respiration uses glucose and oxygen, and it makes water and carbon dioxide

In the respiration equation, the energy act as a "product" because the energy is generated from the oxidation of the stored molecule which is glucose.  

<u>Explanation</u>:  

During photosynthesis the energy act as a reactant to generate sugar molecules but during respiration the produced sugar molecule is used to produce energy through oxidative phosphorylation. Hence, during the respiration energy acts as a product rather than a reactant because the product of respiration is ATP molecule which is a high energy product of respiration.

What chemicals regulate the cell cycle how do they work?
Molodets [167]
Cyclins are the chemicals that regulate the cell cycle. Cyclins work by regulating the timing of the cell cycle in eukaryotic cell. Cyclins activates cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs) (an enzyme that works by adding <span>negatively charged phosphate groups to other molecules in a process called phosphorylation) by binding to it to form a cyclin-Cdk complex. This complex then functions by acting as a signal to the cell to move to the next cell cycle phase. At the end of the event, the cyclin is degraded, Cdk is deactivated, therefore signaling exit from a specific phase.</span>
