Respiration uses ____ and ____, and produces ____ & ____
A
CO2 & ATP, O2 & glucose
B
O2 & glucose, CO2 & ATP
C
CO2 & glucose, O2 & ATP
D
O2 & ATP, CO2 & glucose
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The lungs and respiratory system allow us to breathe. They bring oxygen into our bodies (called inspiration, or inhalation) and send carbon dioxide out (called expiration, or exhalation). This exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide is called respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Oxygen is required in the cellular respiration in the electron transporter chain. It serves as the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain facilitating the movement of electrons down the chain hence producing the ATP or adenosine triphosphate.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that uses glucose to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), an organic compound the body can use for energy. One molecule of glucose can produce a net of 30-32 ATP.
