The gas that is a reactant in aerobic cellular respiration is oxygen. C6H12O6 + O2 --> CO2 + H2O
What is the role of skin in respiration?
Skin plays a minor role in respiration by allowing a small amount of gas exchange to occur through diffusion. However, the majority of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange in humans occurs through the respiratory system, specifically in the lungs. The skin is not the primary organ involved in respiration.
What gas is used in aerobic respiration?
Oxygen is the gas used in aerobic respiration. It is essential for the process of breaking down glucose molecules to produce energy in the form of ATP.
