[Answered] Cellular respiration is a process involving the breakdown of glucose molecules in order to generate energy for cellular activities. Given the general reaction below, which of the following best describes the products labeled $x$ and $y$? $C_6 H_{12} O_6+O_2 \rightarrow x_{-}+y_{-}+\text {energy }$ A. The products are CO (carbon monoxide) and $H _2 O _2$ (hydrogen peroxide), which then decompose into carbon dioxide $\left( CO _2\right)$ and water $\left( H _2 O \right)$. B. The products are $H _2 O$ (water) and $CO _2$ (carbon dioxide), which then undergo anaerobic respiration. C. The products are $CO _2$ (carbon dioxide) and $H _2 O$ (water), which then become the reactants for photosynthesis. D. The products are $O _2$ (oxygen) and $H _2 O$ (water), which are then used for growth and to keep the organism hydrated.
