Yes, oxygen is the fuel for respiration... oxygen + glucose = carbod dioxide + water + Energy However, the carbon dioxide and oxygen for a plant or tree would be the other way round because plants breath in co2 and give out oxygen.

Does the nitrogen cycle involve photosyethis and respiration?

No. Nitrogen is required to make proteins (which DO the photosynthesis & the respiration), but is not classed as part of the cycles.


Is oxygen required for the stage of respiration that takes place in the mitochondria?

yes it is. oxygen and glucose are both required.


Is oxygen required for the stage in respiration that takes place in the cytoplasm?

Glycolisis is the step of respiration occurs in cytoplasm.It do not need O2.


Is nitrogen used in respiratory?

No, nitrogen is not used in the respiratory process. Oxygen is the primary gas used in respiration, as it is required for cellular respiration to take place in order to produce energy. Nitrogen makes up a large portion of the air we breathe but is not involved in the respiratory process.


What gas is used by eukaryotic cells for cellular respiration?

Oxygen is the gas used by eukaryotic cells for cellular respiration. Oxygen is required for the process of oxidative phosphorylation, which is the final stage of cellular respiration where ATP is produced.


What are the first stage of cellular respiration?

The first stage in cellular respiration is known as Glycolysis.


What would not be fuel for respiration?

Respiration would take fuels of hydrocarbons, sugars, carbohydrates, natural fats, etc. Oxygen, of course, is also required for respiration. Carbon Dioxide is a product of respiration, and not a fuel. Nitrogen Gas (N2) is relatively inert in the body, and not a fuel of respiration. Argon and the inert gases are not fuels.


What occurs during the first stage of respiration?

Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm during the first stage of respiration.


Where in the cell does the second stage of respiration?

The second stage of cellular respiration, after glycolysis, occurs in the mitochondria. All of the stages of cellular respiration (after glycolysis in the cytoplasm) occur in the mitochondria.


Is respiration involved in the nitrogen cycle?

No, this is because no living thing breaths or exhales nitrogen.


What is the stage of cellular respiration?

it not fermentation


Is oxygen required in Krebs cycle?

Yes, oxygen is required in the Kreb Cycle. Kreb cycle is a part of the respiration process that occurs in the matrix of mitochondria in the cell, and respiration reaction requires oxygen. Also the decarboxylation reactions are an important part of the kreb cycle and they cannot occur without oxygen.
