Question

The electrons stripped from glucose in cellular respiration end up in which compound? see concept 9.4 ( page 174) hints the electrons stripped from glucose in cellular respiration end up in which compound? see concept 9.4 ( page 174) water oxygen carbon dioxide atp nadh

Answer 1

Water

The electrons stripped from glucose first end up forming oxygen as cellular respiration proceeds with the electron transport chain (step). Eventually, the oxygen is combined with the hydrogen ions initially released or split from glucose by the dehydrogenase enzyme. The reaction between oxygen and hydrogen ends up forming water.
