    The false statement is:
"New matter is composed during aerobic cellular respiration in the form of carbon dioxide and water."
This statement is misleading because, according to the law of conservation of mass, matter cannot be created or destroyed. During aerobic cellular respiration, existing matter (glucose and oxygen) is transformed into different forms (carbon dioxide and water), but no new matter is created in the process.
