Question

during cellular respiration, four total atp are produced when pyruvic acid is created. what else is produced as a result of this reaction? (1 point)
water
oxygen
heat
sugar

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Cellular respiration is an exothermic process. When pyruvic acid is formed during glycolysis (a part of cellular respiration), energy is released in the form of heat along with ATP production. Water is produced later in aerobic respiration steps, oxygen is consumed, and sugar is broken - down to form pyruvic acid, not produced.

Answer:

C. heat
