Answer:

Explanation:

Yes, for a couple of reasons.

1. Carbon connects easily with other carbons.

2. Carbon forms chemical that can change and connect with other carbons even in biology or especially in Biology. If you take a brown seen and plant it where it can get water and soil nutrients, to will come up as a green plant. Think about the chemistry that goes into that. Not only that, but there are mechanisms that tell the upper part of the plant that the roots can't supply any more growth. Isn't that something? All made from Carbon.

3. The human body is a mass of Carbon based chemicals and all cells there can have different functions. Amazing isn't it? I'm a fan of the diversity of our planet and its growth.

What two compounds are the waste products of cellular respiration? * H2O and CO2 H2O and C6H12O6 CO2 and C6H12O6 ATP and CO2
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

The two compounds that correspond to waste products of cellular respiration are H₂O and CO₂.

Explanation:

The cellular metabolic waste products, specifically from cellular respiration are water (H₂O) and carbon dioxide (CO₂), from the oxidation of glucose into energy.

The process of <u>cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and consists of a series of chemical reactions</u> where, from a glucose molecule, energy is obtained in the form of ATP molecules.

Obtaining H₂O and CO₂ from glucose can be summarized with the schematic reaction:

                                 <em>C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂ →  6H₂O  +  6CO₂</em>

This summary indicates that a glucose molecule, when oxidized, produces as waste 6 molecules of water and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide. To reach this process all the reactions of the oxidative phosphorylation occur and 24 molecules of ATP are obtained for each molecule of glucose.

For the other options it is important to mention that:

  • <em><u>C₆H₁₂O₆</u></em><em> is the substrate from which cellular respiration takes place. </em>
  • <em><u>ATP </u></em><em>is the final product of cellular respiration, translated into energy to be used by the cell.</em>
