What role does cellular respiration play in the carbon cycle?

AIt removes CO2 from the atmosphere during glycolysis.
BIt removes CO2 from the atmosphere during the citric acid cycle.
CIt releases CO2 to the atmosphere during acetyl CoA formation.
Correct Answer
DIt releases CO2 to the atmosphere during electron transport.

Solution

During cellular respiration, cells released CO2 in the atmosphere during 'acetyl CoA' formation.

Explanation:

During cellular respiration, cell break down glucose molecules into water and carbon dioxide to produce ATP. ATP is the power that a body needs to function. There are '4 stages of cellular respiration' which are Glycolysis, Pyruvate oxidation, Citric-acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation.

In 'pyruvate oxidation', each pyruvate from the glycolysis goes into mitochondria and it is converted into 'two-carbon molecule' bound to coenzyme A. It is known as CoA. 'Carbon dioxide' is released.
