Solution

The correct option is C CO2
The process of respiration can be represented as follows:
C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6O2 (oxygen) 6H2O (water) + 6CO2 (carbon dioxide) + energy
It is the process by which the living organism oxidize their food and release energy. The energy released is utilized for various metabolic processes. The glucose obtained by the food is oxidized with the help of oxygen to form energy in form of ATP. Carbon dioxide and water molecules are produced along with energy.
Thus, the correct answer is 'CO2'.
