Answer:

Option 3,

Step-by-step explanation:

In the process of cellular respiration, the sugar is oxidised to convert into carbon dioxide , water and energy molecule ATP (Adenosine Tri Phosphate)

If the above chemical reaction is represented mathematically it will be as follows -


C_6 H_(12) O_6 + 6 O_2 --> 6 CO_2 + 6 H_2 O + ATP

The above reaction is a balanced chemical reaction representing cellular reaction

Thus, option 3 is correct
