In an experiment, mice were fed glucose (c₆h₁₂o₆) containing a small amount of radioactive carbon. the mice were closely monitored, and in a few minutes, radioactive carbon atoms showed up in . carbon dioxide b. atp c. heat d. water

Carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Cellular respiration involves a break down of sugars such as glucose to yield energy in the form of ATP and water together with carbon dioxide as byproducts.In this case, when mice are fed with glucose, cellular respiration takes place breaking down glucose to yield energy in the form of ATP, water and carbon dioxide.Therefore, the radioactive carbon in glucose showed up in carbon dioxide, since the carbon in glucose ends up in carbon dioxide.
