During cellular respiration, the molecule that is primarily broken down is sugar (specifically glucose). The process involves breaking the covalent bonds in sugar to release energy that is then used to produce ATP. So, the correct response is sugar.

During cellular respiration, four total ATP are produced when pyruvic acid is created. What else is produced as a result of this reaction?(1 point) Responses water water oxygen oxygen sugar sugar heat
During cellular respiration, when pyruvic acid is created (specifically during glycolysis), in addition to the production of four ATP molecules, water is also produced. Therefore, the correct response is water.
Why does hydrogen bond so tightly to oxygen during cellular respiration?(1 point) Responses It is not electronegative, but oxygen is. It is not electronegative, but oxygen is. It is less electronegative than oxygen. It is less electronegative than oxygen. It is more electronegative than oxygen. It is more electronegative than oxygen. It is electronegative, but oxygen is not.
The correct response is: It is less electronegative than oxygen.
In a water molecule (H₂O), oxygen is highly electronegative compared to hydrogen, which means it attracts the shared electrons in the covalent bonds more strongly. This difference in electronegativity allows for the formation of hydrogen bonds between water molecules, contributing to the strong interaction between hydrogen and oxygen.
Identify the byproduct of lactic acid fermentation.(1 point) Responses oxygen oxygen lactic acid lactic acid carbon dioxide carbon dioxide pyruvic acid
The byproduct of lactic acid fermentation is lactic acid. Therefore, the correct response is lactic acid.
When a reaction releases more energy than it uses, it is called(1 point) Responses emeritus emeritus exothermic exothermic catalyst catalyst lactic
When a reaction releases more energy than it uses, it is called exothermic. Therefore, the correct response is exothermic.
