Which statement describes the reaction for cellular respiration?
mixer [17]

The equation is glucose + oxygen carbon dioxide + water and energy is produced in the form of ATP.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a metabolic process in which glucose combines with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water with energy stored as ATP.

    Glucose + Oxygen gas → Carbon dioxide + Water + energy in ATP

ATP is Adenosine TriPhosphate.

In the body, during cellular respiration, oxygen gas is inhaled and carried to sites in the body where food in form of glucose obtained from plant is broken down.

When food is broken down aerobically i.e in the presence of oxygen gas, carbon dioxide and water is produced and energy is stored in form of ATP.
