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 sugar is burned in the cell to produce energy?

The sugar that is burned in the cell to produce energy is glucose. Glucose has energy stored in it's chemical bonds and is used in cellular respiration.


What does cellular respiration allows an organism to get energy from?

In case of the cellular respiration, glucose molecule is burned out to carbon bi oxide and water. In chemical burning you get heat released suddenly. In case of biological oxidation, the energy is released in step wise fashion. Most of the energy is trapped in ATP molecule. Some of the energy is released as heat.


What happens to energy During cellular respiration?

Energy is burned or is used up during this process. During cellular respiration, molecules of glucose are broken down in order to convert the stored energy into a usable form of energy.


What process breaks down glucose before cellular respiration?

Glucose is broken down IN cellular respiration, also called the Kreb cycle. Glucose enters this electron transport chain process intact, and is broken down to CO2 and water, while giving off chemical energy which is stored in the form of ATP molecules for the cell to use for chemical energy in metabolic processes. Glucose is not broken down before cellular respiration; it is broken down IN the process.


What starts cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration begins with glycolysis that takes place in the cell's cytoplasm. Glucose is the substance that is burned for the production of energy.


What does the mitochondria control?

No. The mitochondria are the site of aerobic cellular respiration.


Is carbon dioxide a by-product of cellular respiration?

yes. NO. Glycolysis does not produce carbon dioxide. In aerobic respiration, carbon dioxide is produced in the citric acid (or Krebs cycle) which is a different step of the metabolic breakdown of glucose.


What in the mitochondria break down food molecules?

Mitochondria use glucose as fuel.So food we eat converted to glucose.


How does a cellular respiration allow a cell to produce ATP?

Yes is does, the chemical formula for cellular respiration is: C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ADP Glucose + Oxygen -> Carbon dioxide + Water + energy(ATP) The cell breaks up the glucose into Energy in the form of ATP which the plant can then use ~element. A definition of 'a fruitless exercise' is to try to find even one cellular process that does not require ATP.


Which molecule is burned to provide quick energy when you exercise?

Glucose (sugar)


What two things does cellular respiration need and make?

Needs- glucose and oxygen. Makes- water and carbon dioxide. During cellular respiration, glucose is combined with oxygen and is transformed in your mitochondria into the high-energy molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is made of a base, a sugar and three phosphate groups. The phosphate groups are held together by a high-energy bond. When the bond is broken, a high level of energy is released and is used by the cells. Once the bond is broken ATP becomes ADP (adenosine diphosphate) which has only two phosphate groups and is able to pick up another phosphate. During cellular respiration, glucose is "burned" in the presence of oxygen, making water, carbon dioxide and lots(34) of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products of cellular respirations.
