alleryThe overall reaction of aerobic respiration is
ACO₂ + H₂O + light → glucose + O₂
Bglucose + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O + energy
Cglucose + CO₂ → starch + H₂O
DO₂ + N₂ → 2 NO + energy
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. glucose + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O + energy
Aerobic respiration is the reverse of photosynthesis at the summary level: glucose + 6 O₂
→ 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + energy.
Photosynthesis stores energy in glucose
respiration releases it back.
The first option is photosynthesis
option D is industrial nitrogen oxidation.
