Biology

During cellular respiration, glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is broken down through a series of reactions. In the glycolysis stage, glucose is partially broken down into pyruvate. Then, in the Krebs cycle, the carbon atoms in the glucose are fully oxidized, and they are released as carbon dioxide (CO₂).

The other options are incorrect:

ATP: ATP is produced, but it does not directly involve the carbon atoms from glucose....
