Question 13

Cells from a banana fruit are kept without oxygen and form ethanol and carbon dioxide. Cells from a celery stem use oxygen and form carbon dioxide and water. Each group breaks down the same number of glucose molecules.

Which comparison is correct?

[1]
A

The products from the banana cells contain more chemical energy because their glucose is broken down incompletely

B

The products from neither group contain chemical energy because both groups release carbon dioxide

C

The products from both groups contain the same chemical energy because equal amounts of glucose are used

D

The products from the celery cells contain more chemical energy because oxygen is used during respiration
