Solution

The correct option is C
$C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6 O_{2} \to 6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + e n e r g y$

Aerobic cellular respiration is the breakdown of a glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to form carbon dioxide, water and energy. The energy is produced in the form of ATP molecules.
Therefore this equation is the true representation of aerobic cellular respiration.
