Solution

(a) The name of the process is cellular respiration.

(b) It is a catabolic process which involves break down of glucose molecule.
$C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6 O_{2} C a r b o h y d r a t e + o x y g e n ⟶ 6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + E n e r g y C a r b o n d i o x i d e + w a t e r + (A T P)$

(c) Raw material for this process is glucose molecule and oxygen, which are products of photosynthesis, occurring in plants.
