Answer 1

During cellular respiration, radioactive hydrogen from the water used by plants can ultimately be integrated into various organic molecules. However, the most relevant process here is that hydrogen atoms can be used as components in the formation of water as a byproduct during cellular respiration.

Given this context, the most accurate response is:

It was recycled into water.
