aerobic respiration basically its first step is called glycolysis and is further divded in two forms either aerobic which occur in presence of o2 and anaerobic in absences of oxygen Exactly so to answer the question the process the REQUIRES O2 is aerobic respiration like i said.

∙ 12y agorespiration is the generally accepted term. However, the use of oxygen to break down glucose would suggest the need to add "aerobic" (aerobic respiration) because ATP is also made from glucose in the absence of oxygen (anaerobic respiration).

∙ 9y agoIn the presence of oxygen (O2) aerobic cell respiration breaks down glucose (C6H12O6) into ATP. The reaction of C6H12O6 and O2 yield 38 ATPs.

Does photosynthesis produces carbon dioxide gas?
No, the process is to take in carbon dioxide with water and sunlight to make sugars; the by-product is oxygen.
Do sugars have nitrogen?
No. Sugars are composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, but not nitrogen.
When is oxygen used in cellular respiration?
I. Cellular Respiration: breaking down sugar in the presence of oxygen (aerobic).Photosynthesis (you recall...) is the process by which CO2 and H2O are used to make sugars and starches.During Cellular Respiration, sugar is broken down to CO2 and H2O, and in the process, ATP is made that can then be used for cellular work.The overall reaction for cellular respiration: (does this reaction look familiar? Overall, it is the reverse reaction of photosynthesis, but chemically, the steps involved are very different.)C6H12O6 + 6O2 -------------------> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ~38 ATP
Does water plants take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide?
Any green plant (containing Chlorophyll) in the presence of light will take in CO2 and give off O2 (oxygen) since photosynthesis is the process by which plants fix carbon from CO2 to produce sugars (polysaccharides etc.). In doing so plants feed the world and produce oxygen even underwater.
What 2 process can photosynthesis be separated into?
The taking in of sunlight to make sugars and starches & the taking in of carbon dioxide and the giving out of oxygen.
What is the product of photosynethesis?
The product of photosynthesis is Glucose( C6H12O6) and Oxygen(O2). The process of photosynthesis takes place in the presence of sunlight. In this process the H2O and CO2 gets converted into the energy called ATP and into simple sugars called Glucose(C6H12O6). Also the plant releases Oxygen(O2) as the waste which is taken by us.
What is phoyosynthsis?
Photosynthesis is when a plant turns water and carbon dioxide in the presence of light and chlorophyll into oxygen and glucose i.e sugars
What is the process by which chloroplasts use carbon dioxide water and sunlight to produce sugars and oxygen?
photosynthesis
True or false During photosynthesis carbon dioxide and water in the presence of light are used to form sugars and oxygen gas?
False.
A reaction in living things that turns sugar and oxygen into carbon dioxide?
The process is called photosynthesis. It occurs in most green plants (mainly in the leaves).Simplistically: Plants use atmospheric carbon dioxide and combine it with water in the presence of sunlight to produce glucose (sugars) and water.The plants then use the sugars to "fuel" metabolic and growth functions; during the process of "respiration" the sugars are broken down releasing energy and oxygen - the latter is expelled by the plant.The chemical process is as follows:6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2See the related question link below for more information

What is the process used to breack apart food?
The process of breaking down food is called digestion and the use of the sugars obtained through digestion is called cellular respiration.
