Answer:

The correct answer is option B, Diffusion

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide and oxygen diffuse across the semipermeable membrane due to the variation of concentration across the membrane (known as concentration gradient). Oxygen diffuses into the cell from outside because its concentration is high on the outer side of the cell wall. While carbon dioxide diffuses out of the cell, because its concentration is high on the inner side of cell membrane.  

Also, both carbon dioxide and oxygen are non polar and small sized molecules due to which they can be easily transported across the lipid membrane.

Lapatulllka [165]
<h2><u>Full Question:</u></h2>

Which statement correctly compares and contrasts the three stages of cellular respiration that occur in the presence of oxygen? Each stage occurs in the mitochondria, but only the final stage produces ATP. Each stage produces ATP, but only the third stage occurs in the mitochondria. Each stage produces ATP, but only the first stage occurs in the cytoplasm. Each stage occurs in the cytoplasm, but only the final stage produces ATP.

<h2><u>Answer</u>:</h2>

Each stage produces ATP, but only the first stage occurs in the cytoplasm.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Cellular respiration is the process by which the glucose or any respiratory substrate is burned down inside a cell producing ATP or energy. This process of cellular respiration is seen in each and every living cell. The glucose is burned in the cytoplasm of the cell producing the pyruvate. This pyruvate is decarboxylated into Acetyl CoA and transferred inside the mitochondria. So the glycolysis or the 1st step of cellular respiration occurs in cytoplasm and rest inside the mitochondria.

ATP is produced from each astep of cellular respiration. So the correct option is option C.

Note each of them:

Archaea is a single-celled microorganism with no nucleus

Bacteria is a unicellular microorganism with cell walls but lack organelles

Sarcodina is a phylum with temporary extensions of the cell. They can be parasitic.

Protista is an eukaryotic organisms that is not an animal, plant, or fungus.

The organism found is unicellular (rules out Archaea), with cell walls (characteristics of bacteria), and the ability to produce spores.

I believe that Bacteria (B) is your best answer

hope this helps
