Water is one of the end products of aerobic respiration. What is the source of the oxygen atom used in formation of the water? (A) carbon dioxide (CO₂) (B) glucose (C₆HO₁₂C₆ )molecular oxygen (O₂) (D) pyruvate (C₃H₃O₃⁻)



Answer :

The source of the oxygen atom used in formation of the water in aerobic respiration is (C) molecular oxygen (O₂).

Water has the chemical formula H₂O. It makes up approximately 60% of a human's body. It is also an end product of the cellular respiration. It is also considered to be the universal solvent. The body essentially requires water to perform all of its functions.

Aerobic respiration is the breakdown of glucose to yield energy in the form of ATP in the presence of oxygen. All the aerobic organisms follow this mode of respiration. the by-products of the respiration and carbon dioxide and water.
