A
glucose and oxygen
B
carbon dioxide and water
C
glucose and carbon dioxide
D
glucose and water
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The raw materials required for aerobic cellular respiration are respiratory substrates (glucose, fatty acids, amino acids, or organic acids) and oxygen but in the case of anaerobic respiration raw material is respiratory substrate only.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glycolysis is a series of reactions that occurs when glucose molecules split into two 3-carbon molecules known as pyruvates, which then release energy in the form of ATP. Starting material for glycolysis is glucose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Raw materials for photosynthesis are carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight.
