A human child has grown a lot over the past year. Which of the following most correctly describes what this rapidly growing child does with the food it eats? A. After the nutrients have been removed, the atoms in the food enter cellular respiration and are converted into energy. B. After the nutrients have been removed, the atoms in the food enter cellular respiration and are eventually released into the air as oxygen (02). C. The atoms in the food enter cellular respiration and are used to make new tissues in the child's body. D. The atoms in the food enter cellular respiration and are released as carbon dioxide (CO2). E. Some of the atoms in the food are used to make new tissues in the child's body and some enter cellular respiration and are released as carbon dioxide (CO2).

During cellular respiration, the bonds of food molecules are broken, so energy can be released to fuel other cellular processes. In order for this to occur, which of the following statements must be true? A. The energy in the new compounds that are formed must be equal to the energy in the bonds of the food molecules. B. New compounds with lower-energy bonds must be formed when the high-energy bonds in food molecules are broken. C. New compounds with higher-energy bonds must be formed when the low-energy bonds in food molecules are broken. D. The new compounds that are formed must be more complex than the food molecules that were broken down.

2. When you break down food during cellular respiration, energy is released. Where was that energy found before it was released? Group of answer choices It was stored in the protons of the food atoms. It was stored in oxygen atoms in the food. It was stored in the chemical bonds of food molecules. It was stored in the neutrons of the food atoms. 4. During redox reactions, Group of answer choices a substance that gains electrons often gains protons as well. protons from one molecule replace the electrons lost from another molecule. energy is released when chemical bonds are formed by electrons. oxidation can occur without reduction. 6. Which of the following statements regarding the movement of electrons during cellular respiration is TRUE? Group of answer choices Water releases electrons to form O2. O2 is eventually oxidized by the electrons to form water. Electrons tend to move away from O2. O2 is reduced when it accepts electrons and forms water. 8. Why do you need to breathe in oxygen? Group of answer choices Oxygen is needed to split glucose. Oxygen pulls electrons through the process of cell respiration. Oxygen provides energy that is to be put into ATP. Oxygen reduces the NAD+ and FADH to produce NADH and FADH2
