Plants grow over time by balancing two chemical reactions: photosynthesis and cellular respiration. Plants use the products of photosynthesis as the reactants of cellular respiration.
Photosynthesis: 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy C6H12O6 + 6O2
Which is the chemical equation representing cellular respiration?
A. 6H2O + energy C6H12O6 + 6O2
B. C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + energy
C. 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy C6H12O6 + 6O2
D. C6H12O6 + 6O2 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy

Respuesta :

The answer to that I think would be D because:

A is wrong because it doesn't make sense the way the order it is in,

B doesn't make sense because it is in the wrong order,  and

C says the same exact thing that photosynthesis says which would mean that it is representing the photosynthesis equation not the chemical equation for cellular respiration.

Also it is D because D shows the correct way that the chemical equation representing cellular respiration is supposed to be in.

Hope this helped!
