Correct option is D
- Respiration in plants is a process where glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is broken down with the help of oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂), water (H₂O), and energy (in the form of ATP).
- The general equation for respiration is:
C₆H₁₂O₆ (Glucose)+6O₂ (Oxygen)→6CO₂ (Carbon dioxide)+6H₂O (Water)+Energy (ATP)
- In this process:
- CO₂ is released as a by-product.
- H₂O is formed as a result of metabolic reactions.
- Energy is generated, which is used by the plant for various activities.
Thus, the end products of respiration in plants are CO₂, H₂O, and Energy, making D the correct option.
