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 does Starch change into before respiratory ATP production?

Starch is broken down into glucose molecules before being further metabolized through glycolysis to produce ATP during cellular respiration.


Where does the carbon from glucose end up?

After cellular respiration occurs, the hydrogen that was in glucose gets attracted to the Oxygen atoms and it becomes water. the hydrogen seperates from the carbon in the glucose and it forms another bond with Oxygen. Hope that helped


What is the first step of cellular respiration that takes place in the cytoplasm?

Glycolysis or "Splitting of sugar", has to happen in the cell's cytoplasm before cellular respiration can occur. I hope this helps!


What comes first cellular respiration or photosynthesis?

Both Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis are interdependent. In their chemical formulas:Photosythesis: CO2+H2O yield sunlight O2+C6H12O6Cellular Respiration: O2+C6H12O6 yield ATP CO2+H2OThere are many theories such as the heterotrophic and autotrophic hypothesis. There is also the spontaneous generation theory however that was disproved by Redi and Pasteur. The most accepted origin of life is the heterotrophic theory.


Explain the equations for photosynthesis and cellular respiration and compare?

Photosynthesis equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2. This process occurs in plants and some bacteria, using sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen. Cellular respiration equation: C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP. This process occurs in all living organisms, breaking down glucose and oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP, releasing carbon dioxide and water as byproducts. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration are complementary processes in nature. Photosynthesis captures and stores energy, while cellular respiration releases that stored energy for use by the cell. They both involve the interchange of gases (oxygen and carbon dioxide) and require ATP for energy transfer.

What are 3 organic compounds in cellular respiration?

The role of organic compounds in cellular respiration is to start cellular respiration. Cellular Respiration is a process that creates ATP. So, in order to create ATP you'll need organic compounds. Organic Compounds are converted into ATP during Cellular Respiration. This is the role of organic compound in cellular respiration.


Before starch can be used for respiratory ATP production it must be hydrolyzed to what?

Before starch can be used for respiratory ATP production, it must be hydrolyzed to glucose. Glucose is the form of sugar that can be efficiently broken down in the process of cellular respiration to produce ATP.

In cellular respiration glycolysis follows the Krebs cycle true or false?

False. In cellular respiration, glycolysis occurs before the Krebs cycle. Glycolysis is the first step in breaking down glucose to produce energy. The Krebs cycle follows glycolysis in the process of cellular respiration.


Do plants and animals go through cellular respiration?

Yes, both plants and animals go through cellular respiration. This process involves breaking down glucose to produce energy in the form of ATP, which is essential for the survival and functioning of all living organisms. In plants, cellular respiration occurs in mitochondria and chloroplasts, while in animals, it occurs primarily in mitochondria.
