During respiration, energy is retrieved from the high-energy bonds found in certain organic molecules. Which of the following, in addition to energy, are the ultimate products of respiration?
(a) CO2, H2O
(b) CH3, H2O
(c) CH2OH, O2
(d) CO2, O2

Respuesta :

Answer:

(A.) CO2, H2O

Explanation:

The chemical equation for respiration process is:

[tex]C_{6}H_{12} O_{6}[/tex] + [tex]6O_{2}[/tex] → [tex]6CO_{2}[/tex] + [tex]6H_{2} O[/tex] + ATP↑

Energy is released during the biochemical process in the organism's cells in form of ATP. Byproducts of the reaction are carbon dioxide and water molecules.
