A
cellular respiration
B
photosynthesis
C
cell theory
D
cytoskeleton
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: The biochemical process that hydrolyzes glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen is known as aerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration is the aerobic process by which living cells break down glucose molecules, release energy, and form molecules of ATP .

Detailed explanation-3: -The process is called cellular respiration which breaks down the glucose and releases energy called ATP, another form of chemical energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -Once glucose is digested and transported to your cells, a process called cellular respiration releases the stored energy and converts it to energy that your cells can use. Cellular respiration consists of three metabolic processes: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

Detailed explanation-5: -The process of breakdown of food in the cell with the release of energy is called cellular respiration. Cellular respiration takes place in the cells of all organisms. In the cell, the food (glucose) is broken down into carbon dioxide and water using oxygen.
