    The answer to your question is: B

    Explanation:

    a) The equation is carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen + water and energy is required in the form of light. This option is totally wrong, the reactants in cellular respiration are sugar and oxygen, and cellular respiration never forms light.

    b) The equation is glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water and energy is produced in the form of ATP. This option is correct, in cellular respiration the cell uses sugar and oxygen to make carbon dioxide, water and ATP.

    c) The equation is carbon dioxide + water → glucose + oxygen + water and energy is produced in the form of ATP. This option is wrong, it's describing an unknow process to me.

    d) The equation is glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water and energy is required in the form of light. This option is partially correct, but the last part makes it wrong because cellular respiration doesn't use light to obtain energy.
