Solution

The correct option is B chemical
In the process of respiration, glucose is brokem down into simpler substances like carbon dioxide and water, with the release of energy. Since the energy stored in the bonds between the atoms that make up glucose is harnessed, we can say that respiration uses chemical energy.
