Chemical energy for respiration is stored in the bonds of (1 point)

The correct response is glucose molecules. Chemical energy for respiration is primarily stored in the bonds of glucose, which is then utilized by cells to produce ATP during cellular respiration.

The correct response is to grow and reproduce. Organisms need to obtain energy via cellular respiration to fuel various biological processes, including growth, reproduction, movement, and maintaining homeostasis.

Question
Which statement best describes energy release in cellular respiration? (1 point)
Responses

Stored chemical energy is broken down and released in the cytoplasm.
Stored chemical energy is broken down and released in the cytoplasm.

Stored chemical energy can be used immediately and is released in the mitochondria.
Stored chemical energy can be used immediately and is released in the mitochondria.

Stored chemical energy can be used immediately and is released in the cytoplasm.
Stored chemical energy can be used immediately and is released in the cytoplasm.

Stored chemical energy is broken down and released in the mitochondria.

The correct response is Stored chemical energy is broken down and released in the mitochondria. Cellular respiration primarily occurs in the mitochondria, where glucose is broken down to release energy.

What is the equation for cellular respiration? (1 point)
Responses

glucose + oxygen + energy → carbon dioxide + water
glucose + oxygen + energy → carbon dioxide + water

carbon dioxide + energy → glucose + oxygen + water
carbon dioxide + energy → glucose + oxygen + water

carbon dioxide + water + energy → glucose + oxygen
carbon dioxide + water + energy → glucose + oxygen

glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy

The correct response is glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + energy. This equation summarizes the process of cellular respiration, where glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide, water, and energy (in the form of ATP).

Glycolysis breaks glucose into (1 point)
Responses

two smaller molecules.
two smaller molecules.

three smaller molecules.
three smaller molecules.

four smaller molecules.
four smaller molecules.

five smaller molecules.

The correct response is two smaller molecules. Glycolysis breaks down one molecule of glucose (which has six carbon atoms) into two molecules of pyruvate (each having three carbon atoms).
