What molecules from the cellular respiration reaction could be used in the experiment to then calculate the rate of cellular respiration? C_6​H_12O_6   O_2   CO_2   H_2O   Energy
Cells are able to extract energy from glucose during cellular respiration. Which of the following contributes to the release of energy? Answer can be multiple    a Creating energy by breaking C-H and C-C bonds.   b Breaking high energy bonds to release their energy.   c Replacing glucose's high energy bonds with new low energy bonds.   d The formation of strong C-O and O-H bonds.
Which of the following statements is a lie? Select one: a.The transfer of energy in living systems use electrons to allow the cell to transfer energy in large amounts. b.Electrons play an important role in redox reactions. This is true because it is the electrons that undergo the redox reactions in living systems. c.For nicotinamide adenine (NAD), its oxidized form is NAD+ while its reduced form is NADH. This is true because NAD+ can accept electrons from an organic molecule.
