Process of living organisms that uses carbohydrates and releases carbon dioxide
A
photosynthesis
B
carbon fixation
C
cellular respiration
D
combustion
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -cellular respiration, the process by which organisms combine oxygen with foodstuff molecules, diverting the chemical energy in these substances into life-sustaining activities and discarding, as waste products, carbon dioxide and water.

Detailed explanation-2: -Answer and Explanation: The stage of cellular respiration in which carbon dioxide release takes place is the citric acid cycle. Aerobic cellular respiration has three steps, glycolysis, the citric acid cycle and the electron transport chain.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products. 8. Plants have mitochondria and can perform cellular respiration.

Detailed explanation-4: -Cellular respiration describes a set of chemical reactions that together convert carbohydrates and oxygen into carbon dioxide and water.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cellular respiration oxidizes glucose molecules through glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation to produce ATP.
