Our food is our energy. When we eat food, we need to digest it and the eaten food, once digested, serves as our energy that we use up for daily needs. If we eat too much food, it will be store and we will become overweight over time. If we don't eat enough, we will lose weight because we're not getting enough energy in our bodies, so our bodies cannot get enough energy from the food eaten, so it looks elsewhere for stored energy - our fat and muscle cells.

If you were to expose cells that are undergoing aerobic cellular respiration to a radioactive oxygen isotope in the form of O2,
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

Water

Explanation:

Molecular oxygen is the terminal electron acceptor and serves to receive electrons from reduced NADH and FADH2 to reoxidize them. NADH and FADH2 are formed during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. These reducing powers should be re-oxidized to enter in the first two steps of aerobic respiration again.

For the purpose, NADH, and FADH2 transfer their electrons to the molecular oxygen via electron transport chain. After accepting the electrons, molecular oxygen is oxidized into the water molecule. Therefore, radioactive oxygen isotope would appear in the form of a water molecule after completion of cellular respiration.
