In the complete oxidation of glucose, six CO2 molecules are formed per glucose molecule. The number of CO2 molecules released by glycolysis is , by pyruvate oxidation is , and by the citric acid cycle is .

0, 2, 4

Explanation:

The process of cellular respiration takes place in for phases which oxidizes the glucose molecule to the provide energy molecule called ATP.

Along with ATP, the process releases the metabolic water and carbon dioxide gas. In the oxidation of one glucose molecules, about 6 molecules of CO₂ are released. These CO₂ molecules are produced in the following manner:

1. Glycolysis: CO₂ gas is not produced during this reaction but only ATP and NADH are produced.

2. Pyruvate decarboxylation: the process converts the pyruvate produced by glycolysis to Acetyl-CoA. Formation of 1 Acetyl-CoA produces 1 CO₂ and since 2 Acetyl-CoA is produced therefore produces 2 CO₂ molecules.

3. Citric acid cycle: The cycle converts 2 Acetyl-CoA and produces 4 CO₂ in two cycles converting each Acetyl-CoA.

Thus, 0, 2, 4 is correct.

you didn't give any options but heres what i can tell you: an inference is likely to change based on additional observations. the latter is something that you have seen or sensed using your sensory organs while the former is like a conclusion out from what you have observed.
