During cellular respiration, one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) produces 6 molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a byproduct.

If three glucose molecules are used, the total amount of CO2 produced would be:

3 glucose molecules × 6 CO2 per glucose = 18 CO2 molecules.

So, the correct response is **18**.
