Solution

Respiration is a catabolic process which involves the breakdown of food complex organic molecules into simpler products with the release of energy. The aerobic respiration involves the oxidation of carbohydrate and the subsequent $1$ production of $C O_{2}, H_{2} O$ and energy.
$C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6 O_{2} \to 6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O +$ energy
