A
Hydrogen Sulfide
B
Oxygen
C
Carbon Dioxide
D
Nitrogen
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen is the final electron electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, which occurs in the mitochondria. So, for aerobic respiration oxygen is must. Respiration decreases with decreased available oxygen.

Detailed explanation-2: -Final answer: Aerobic respiration occurs in presence of oxygen.

Detailed explanation-3: -Aerobic respiration uses the oxygen gathered during the process of anatomical respiration (or breathing) to facilitate ATP synthesis. In this role, oxygen is an electron acceptor within the electron transport chain which synthesizes ATP from nutrients.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: The correct answer is a. Aerobic respiration. Aerobic respiration refers to cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen.
