Question

Statement A: In the flow of energy across earth’s subsystems, 100% of radiant energy is transformed into glucose by photosynthesis and into ATP by aerobic cellular respiration.

Statement B: Heat is always lost in the transformation of ATP, a chemical energy, into kinetic energy by flying insect.

Both statements A and B are correct
Statement A is correct, statement B is incorrect.
Statement A is incorrect, statement B is correct
Neither statement A nor statement B is correct.

Definition Definition Set of metabolic processes and reactions that produce energy from organic substances such as glucose. Cellular respiration takes place in the organism’s cells, where the chemical energy from nutrients or molecules of oxygen is converted into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cellular respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen is called aerobic respiration; in the absence of oxygen, it is called anaerobic respiration.
