Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is a byproduct of respiration in plants?
  • Step 1: Understand what respiration is. Respiration is a process that plants use to convert glucose (sugar) into energy.
  • Step 2: Know that during respiration, plants take in oxygen and break down glucose.
  • Step 3: Identify the products of this process. One of the main products is energy, which the plant uses to grow and function.
  • Step 4: Recognize that a byproduct is something that is produced as a result of a process but is not the main goal. In this case, carbon dioxide is produced as a byproduct.
  • Step 5: Conclude that carbon dioxide is released into the air when glucose is broken down during respiration.
