glucose is broken down, and carbon dioxide is released along with the important stuff such as electron carriers NADH and FADH2 as well as alot of ATP. The process requires 2ATP, releases 4 to make up for it in the first step, then another 2, then 32 for a net amount of 36 ATP, you can Google a complete pathway if you need to know more

What chemical is broken down by respiration?
glucose is broken down by cellular respiration
Is cellular respiration catabolism or anabolism?
Cellular respiration is a catabolic pathway because a complex molecule is being broken down.
Type of compounds broken down during cellular respiration?
Glucose.
Can energy in glucose be released by cellular respiration?
Yes, and {see the chemical reactions for respiration and combustion} so can energy be released by setting alite a sugar-cube.
Does cellular respiration release glucose?
Yes - glucose is broken down in the first step of cellular respiration. This stage is known as glycolysis and occurs in the cytoplasm. Cellular respiration begins with glucose and ends creating ATP.
What chemical is broken down by respiration?
glucose is broken down by cellular respiration
What substance is released when glucose is broken down in cellular respiration?
2 pyruvic acid
What is the process by which food is broken down and energy is released?
Cellular respiration.
What food molecules are broken down and co2 is released by what in eukaryotes?
Glucose is broken down by cellular respiration in the mitochondria (first stage in the cytoplasm) and CO2 is released by the process.
Do Plants perform cellular respiration?
Yes, plants perform cellular respiration in order to produce ATP, or adenosine triphosphate. In cellular respiration, energy is released when large molecules are broken down.
What is broken down into CO2 and H2O during cellular respiration?
Glucose is broken down due to cellular respiration.
Is cellular respiration catabolism or anabolism?
Cellular respiration is a catabolic pathway because a complex molecule is being broken down.
Is food broken down associated with cellular respiration?
i really have no idea
Are monosaccharides broken down in cellular respiration to produce energy?
Yes.
Type of compounds broken down during cellular respiration?
Glucose.
Carbon skeletons to be broken down during cellular respiration can be obtained from?
protein
What are the type of compounds broken down during cellular respiration called?
GLUCOSE
