The correct answer is glucose molecules. Chemical energy for respiration is stored in the bonds of glucose molecules.
To arrive at this answer, you can use your prior knowledge of cellular respiration. Glucose is a common fuel used by cells to produce energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). During cellular respiration, glucose is broken down through a series of metabolic reactions, releasing the stored energy in its bonds. This energy is then used to produce ATP, which is the primary source of energy for cellular processes. Therefore, the chemical energy for respiration is indeed stored in the bonds of glucose molecules.
