Suppose cellular respiration occurs inside an insulated, sealed container. How does the container’s inner temperature change during the reaction?(1 point)

Question

fluctuates

Answer 1

During cellular respiration, energy is released in the form of heat as organic molecules are broken down. Since the container is insulated and sealed, the heat generated from the reaction would cause the temperature inside the container to increase.

Therefore, the correct response is:

increases.
