Solution

The correct option is D

Respiration


Breathing is the physical process by which we take in oxygen and give out carbon dioxide. The oxygen taken in by breathing is then transported to all the cells of the body by the blood. The cells use oxygen to generate energy by the process of cellular respiration. The entire process by which oxygen enters the body, travels to the cells and is used to generate energy is called respiration.
