Write the biochemical equation for respiration in organisms. |
|
Answer» Explanation: Answer: The reaction, somewhat simplified, is 6 CO2 (carbon dioxide) + 12 H2O (water) + light ---> C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 H2O (water) + 6 O2 (oxygen). Then, cellular respiration, which is the same in plants and in animals, takes that glucose, BREAKS it back up, and HARVESTS ENERGY from it in the form of ATP. |
