Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Oxygen is required in the cellular respiration in the electron transporter chain. It serves as the final electron acceptor of the electron transport chain facilitating the movement of electrons down the chain hence producing the ATP or adenosine triphosphate.
Detailed explanation-2: -Because oxygen is required for cellular respiration, it is an aerobic process. Cellular respiration occurs in the cells of all living things, both autotrophs and heterotrophs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Aerobic respiration requires the presence of oxygen to produce energy from food. It is the most common type of respiration seen in plants and animals.
