The equation shows cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose combines with oxygen to form carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. What happens to the energy in the bonds in glucose?

Question illustration
A
The energy is transferred to oxygen.
B
The energy is transferred to carbon dioxide.
C
The energy is transferred to water.
D
The energy is transferred to ATP.
3

The graphic shows the citric acid cycle. During the citric acid cycle, what happens to acetyl-CoA?

Question illustration
A
It enters the citric acid cycle and gains carbon dioxide to form citric acid, and gains more carbon dioxide through redox reactions to form a 4-carbon molecule.
B
It enters the citric acid cycle and associates with a 4-carbon molecule, forming citric acid, and then through redox reactions regenerates the 4-carbon molecule.
C
It enters glycolysis and associates with a 5-carbon molecule through redox reactions, forming another acetyl-CoA molecule.
D
It enters the citric acid cycle and associates with a 4-carbon molecule, forming a 5-carbon compound, and then through oxidation reactions regenerates the 4-carbon molecule.

7

What is the main difference between aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration?

A
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen to proceed, but anaerobic respiration does not.
B
Aerobic respiration occurs during photosynthesis, but anaerobic respiration occurs during cellular respiration.
C
Aerobic respiration produces ATP, but anaerobic respiration does not.
D
Aerobic respiration involves glycolysis, but anaerobic respiration does not.
