In cellular respiration, break down of glucose into carbon dioxide and water takes place. In this process, ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose.
What is the process of cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is the process of combining oxygen with food molecules and then changing the chemical energy in these substances into life-sustaining activities and removing carbon dioxide and water as a by-product.
The process of cellular respiration involves:
- Glycolysis.
- Pyruvate transformation.
- Krebs cycle.
- Oxidative phosphorylation.
The equation of cellular respiration is as follows:
[tex]C_{6} H_{12}O_{6} + 6O_{2}------- > 6CO_{2}+6H_{2}O+energy[/tex]
Thus, the given formula for cellular respiration is not true.
