The statement that occurs in both animals and plant cells is letter C,
Carbon dioxide is needed for respiration and oxygen is a waste product. The
process is known as cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process
of breaking down food such as glucose into carbon dioxide and oxygen. During
the process, cellular respiration also releases energy in the form of ATP
(adenosine triphosphate) for use by all energy consuming activities of the
cell. It is found in the simultaneous process of Gycolysis and Kreb’s cycle.
Glycolysis is the breakdown of glucose to two pyruvic acids. These two pyruvic
acids will be used for the production of carbon dioxide and water in Kreb’s
cycle.
