In one or two sentences, explain how the chemical equation for cellular respiration shows that plants cycle matter. Include the numbers of molecules and atoms involved to support your explanation.?

The chemical equation for cellular respiration (C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP) shows that plants cycle matter by taking in 6 molecules of oxygen and 6 molecules of carbon dioxide to produce 6 molecules of water, 1 molecule of glucose, and energy in the form of ATP. These products are then used in the process of photosynthesis to produce oxygen and glucose, completing the cycle.

Basically, plants breathe in carbon dioxide (CO2) and breathe out oxygen (O2) through a process called photosynthesis. But to get energy from food, they need to do something called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, they breathe in oxygen (O2) and breathe out carbon dioxide (CO2), just like we do! But instead of breathing out oxygen like we do, they release something called ATP which gives them energy to live and grow. And this whole process starts again when they breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen for photosynthesis!
