The false statement is:
New matter is created during aerobic cellular respiration.
This statement is false because, according to the law of conservation of mass, matter cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be transformed or rearranged during chemical reactions, such as aerobic cellular respiration. The process converts glucose and oxygen into carbon dioxide, water, and energy, but does not create new matter.
