Is it possible that the carbon in a glucose molecule (CH₂O₆) in your cereal was once in the carbon dioxide (COz) breathed out by Albert Einstein after his cells did cellular respiration? Explain!

Answer: Potentially, yeah!

Explanation: Humans breathe out quite a lot of CO2. Meanwhile, Einstein was born in Germany and eventually settled in the USA in 1933, but he visited many countries too. Chances are, the CO2 molecules he breathed out during his stay in the countries he had visited might've ended or will end up in crops.
