Which of the following is the chemical equation for cellular respiration?(1 point)

Responses

C6H1206 + 6O2 --> 6H2O + 6CO2 + Energy
C6H1206 + 6O2 --> 6H2O + 6CO2 + Energy

6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy --> C6H12O6 + 6O2
6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy --> C6H12O6 + 6O2

C6H12O6 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + Energy

The correct chemical equation for cellular respiration is:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6H2O + 6CO2 + Energy

This equation represents the process by which glucose (C6H12O6) is oxidized with oxygen (O2) to produce water (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2), and energy (in the form of ATP).
