Question

in the following equation, what is the molecule that is referred to as \molecule a\? c6h12o6 + 6o2 + adp + p → 6co2 + 6h2o + molecule a
carbon dioxide
glucose
nadh
atp

Explanation:

This is the equation for cellular respiration. Glucose ($C_6H_{12}O_6$) is oxidized in the presence of oxygen ($O_2$), with ADP and inorganic phosphate (P) involved. The products are carbon - dioxide ($CO_2$), water ($H_2O$), and ATP which is the energy - carrying molecule produced during this process.

Answer:

D. ATP
