During digestion, carbohydrates are broken down to form glucose. This glucose combines with oxygen in the cells of our body and results in product (A), Product (B) and provides energy. Identify the product A and B.

During digestion, carbohydrates are broken down to form glucose. This glucose combines with oxygen in the cells of our body and results in product (A), Product (B) and provides energy. Identify the product A and B. Correct Answer Carbon Dioxide and Water

The correct answer is Carbon Dioxide and Water.

Key Points

  • Cellular respiration
    • Cellular respiration, the process by which organisms combine oxygen with foodstuff molecules, diverting the chemical energy in these substances into life-sustaining activities and discarding, waste products, carbon dioxide, and water.
    • Specifically, during cellular respiration, the energy stored in glucose is transferred to ATP. ATP, or adenosine triphosphate, is chemical energy the cell can use.
    • During cellular respiration, a glucose molecule is gradually broken down into carbon dioxide and water. Along the way, some ATP is produced directly in the reactions that transform glucose. Much more ATP, however, is produced later in a process called oxidative phosphorylation. Oxidative phosphorylation is powered by the movement of electrons through the electron transport chain, a series of proteins embedded in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion.
    • During cellular respiration, glucose, in the presence of oxygen, is converted into carbon dioxide and water. Recall that carbon dioxide and water are the starting products of photosynthesis. Hence, Option 1 is correct.
    • The process can be summarized as glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water. During this process, the energy stored in glucose is transferred to ATP.
    • C6H12O6 (aq) + 6O2 (aq) → 6CO2 (aq) + 6H2O(l) + energy
