Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Aerobic respiration is a type of respiration that uses up ____
A
oxygen
B
energy.
C
carbon dioxide.
D
water.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Aerobic Respiration: It is the process of cellular respiration that takes place in the presence of oxygen gas to produce energy from food. This type of respiration is common in most of the plants and animals, birds, humans, and other mammals. In this process, water and carbon dioxide are produced as end products.

Detailed explanation-2: -A chemical process in which oxygen is used to make energy from carbohydrates (sugars). Also called aerobic metabolism, cell respiration, and oxidative metabolism.

Detailed explanation-3: -Cellular respiration that proceeds in the presence of oxygen is called aerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-4: -Aerobic respiration breaks down glucose and combines the broken down products with oxygen, making water and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is a waste product of aerobic respiration because cells do not need it.

Detailed explanation-5: -Aerobic respiration involves four stages: glycolysis, a transition reaction that forms acetyl coenzyme A, the citric acid (Krebs) cycle, and an electron transport chain and chemiosmosis.
