The equation shown represents cellular respiration. Glucose + X → Y + Water + Energy What do X and Y most likely represent? X represents carbon dioxide and Y represents sugar. X represents oxygen and Y represents carbon dioxide. X represents sunlight and Y represents hydrogen gas. X represents hydrogen and Y represents carbon dioxide.
X represents oxygen and Y represents carbon dioxide.
Explanation:
Because in respiration, you consume oxygen and make carbon dioxide whereas, in photosynthesis, the equation is reversed and you use carbon dioxide and make oxygen and glucose.
