How atom of carbon dioxide breathed out by man can form part of a cassava tuber​

Biology
1 answer:
USPshnik [31]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

A molecule of the gaseous compound carbon dioxide, CO2 is excreted as a byproduct of cellular respiration in humans. It may  be incorporated into organic plant matter, such as a cassava tuber through the process of photosynthesis.

Photosynthesis produces glucose and O2 from 6 molecules of inorganic CO2, light energy and 6 molecules of water.

6CO2 + 6H20 + (energy) → C6H12O6 + 6O2

Further Explanation:

Photosynthesis is a chemical pathway that’s integral to producing energy in plants and other primary producers. Energy in the form of molecules of glucose is produced from light (solar energy), water and carbon dioxide while oxygen is released. This occurs in several complex steps, photosynthesis is a rate limited reaction, depends on several factors including carbon dioxide concentration, ambient temperature and light intensity; the energy is retrieved from photons, I.e. particles of light, and water is used as a reducing agent.

In all eukaryotic cells mitochondria are small cellular organelles bound by membranes, these make most of the chemical energy required for powering the biochemical reactions within the cell. This chemical energy is stored within the molecule ATP, as kinetic energy within a phosphate bond through the phosphorylation of ADP. Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate( through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm).

During respiration, the breakdown of glucose undergoes several steps in order to produce ATP, namely in glycolysis, the Kreb's cycle and oxidative phosphorylation.

overall: C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≈38 ATP

Answer:

Your bloodstream.

Explanation:

The cells in your pancreas produce insulin which needs to be sent to the rest of your  body to tell your cells to take in glucose (sugar) for energy. In order to get sent out of  the pancreas' cells, the insulin needs to go through your bloodstream.
