Answer
(a) Aerobic respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 → 6CO2 + 6H2O + 38 ATP + 420 kcal
(b) Anaerobic respiration in plants
C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 + 2ATP
(c) Anaerobic respiration in animals
C6H12O6 → 2C3H6O3 (lactic acid) + 2ATP
(d) Photosynthesis
6CO2 + 12H2O C6H12O6 + 6H2O + 6O2↑
(e) Phosphorylation
ADP + Pi (inorganic phosphate) → ATP
