What are the products of cellular respiration?

In: Biology, Biochemistry

Answer:

The formula for aerobic respiration is as follows:
Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂ → 6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O + Energy (34-36 ATP + heat)

As you can see, the products are:

Carbon dioxide
Water
Energy as ATP (34-36)

In alcohol fermentation (anaerobic), the products are:

Ethanol
Carbon dioxide
Energy (2 ATP)

In lactic acid fermentation (anaerobic), the products are:

Lactic acid
Energy (2 ATP)
