Responses

Energy being created as glucose is consumed and oxygen is used.

Oxygen molecules combining with carbon atoms to create new substances without changing the mass.

"Glucose and oxygen breaking into carbon dioxide and water, showing that the mass remains the same and energy is released."

This shows matter is rearranged (atoms in glucose and O2 become CO2 and H2O while total mass is conserved) and that chemical energy is released (not created) during the reaction.
