    I admire your persistence in typing all this out, but nobody is going to have the time to help you with every answer.

    Try using Google or wikipedia, they're very useful for finding answers to multiple choice questions, and you might just learn something.

    (question 7 is ridiculous and makes me angry)

    Wow, who wrote this thing?

    The answer to the first (#5) question — "all of the above" — isn't an option, and two of the answers (B and D) are the same thing. And it gets worse from there...

    The answer is C, producing ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) and releasing water. Respiration cannot produce glucose, nor oxygen, since both are needed for respiration.

    derobert, I'm afraid I don't understand you here...
