C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O -----> 6CO2 + 12H2O + energy
Easier:
glucose (sugar) molecules + oxygen molecules = carbon dioxide molecules, water molcules, and energy
**Oxygen is used to create energy in cellular respiration**
(CO2 and H2O are waste products)

∙ 15y agoOxygen is used in the final step in the electron transport chain by cytochrome c oxidase to accept the low-energy electrons that has been passed through the electron transport chain. Only oxygen is a strong enough oxidizing agent to accepts such low-energy electrons. Oxygen combine with a pair of electrons and two protons to form water, the waste product of cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration involves the use of carbon dioxide or oxygen?
Cellular respiration uses oxygen.
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?
cellular respiration uses oxygen but fermentation does not use oxygen
Why is external respiration vital to cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration need oxygen. This oxygen is supplied by external respiration
What are the inputsoutputs of a cell?
Cellular Respiration Relationship In plants, plants use the outputs of photosynthesis (sugar, oxygen) as the inputs of cellular respiration. They then use the outputs of cellular respiration as the inputs of photosynthesis. It is a cycle.
What happens if an organism performs cellular respiration without oxygen?
Anaerobic respiration does not involve oxygen.
Cellular respiration involves the use of carbon dioxide or oxygen?
Cellular respiration uses oxygen.
What is one true distinction between fermentation and cellular respiration?
cellular respiration uses oxygen but fermentation does not use oxygen
Do cells of alveolar is lungs also respire oxygen to carry out cellular respiration?
Yes, they do use oxygen to carry out cellular respiration.
How is cellular respiration and fermentation different?
Respiration uses oxygen, while fermentation does not use oxygen.
What are the difference cellular respiration and respiration?
Oxygen is the difference! Cellular respiration requires oxygen, while cellular fermentation does not.
What do plant use for cellular respiration?
sugar and oxygen
What gas is use in cellular respiration?
oxygen gas
Why is oxygen necessry for cellular respiration?
Yes, Oxygen is required for cellular respiration.
Why is external respiration vital to cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration need oxygen. This oxygen is supplied by external respiration
What is the common use for oxygen?
Aerobic cellular respiration is the most common use for oxygen.
What are the inputsoutputs of a cell?
Cellular Respiration Relationship In plants, plants use the outputs of photosynthesis (sugar, oxygen) as the inputs of cellular respiration. They then use the outputs of cellular respiration as the inputs of photosynthesis. It is a cycle.
What happens if an organism performs cellular respiration without oxygen?
