During cellular respiration, carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere during the formation of acetyl coenzyme A<span>. This step involves the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvic acid, the result of which is carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide is uptaken by plants and used in the process of photosynthesis to produce glucose.</span>

- So it is very long sequence containing the million of genes. So in nucleus it is present in compress form. It is wrapped on the histones proteins and condense and supersondense into a specific structure which is known as chromosome.
