|
Only animals, since they are the only organisms that go through the process of cellular respiration
|
|
|
Humans only
|
|
|
All organisms that break down glucose for food; including plants and animals

Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen is required for cellular respiration and is used to break down nutrients, like sugar, to generate ATP (energy) and carbon dioxide and water (waste). Organisms from all kingdoms of life, including bacteria, archaea, plants, protists, animals, and fungi, can use cellular respiration.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration takes place in the cells of animals, plants, and fungi, and also in algae and other protists.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration occurs in the cells of all living things. It takes place in the cells of both autotrophs and heterotrophs. All of them burn glucose to form ATP.
Detailed explanation-4: -All living cells must carry out cellular respiration. It can be aerobic respiration in the presence of oxygen or anaerobic respiration.
Detailed explanation-5: -Rather, plants use sunlight, water, and the gases in the air to make glucose, which is a form of sugar that plants need to survive. This process is called photosynthesis and is performed by all plants, algae, and even some microorganisms.
