Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Final answer: Oxygen is not a product of respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by-products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.

Detailed explanation-3: -Carbon dioxide and water are created as byproducts. The overall equation for aerobic cellular respiration is: In cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen react to form ATP. Water and carbon dioxide are released as byproducts.

Detailed explanation-4: -During oxidation, the oxygen combines with the food we eat, liberating energy and waste products (carbon dioxide and water).
