Answer 2

Oxygen

Step-by-step explanation:

Cellular respiration is the metabolic process that involves the breakdown of glucose molecule in order to synthesize energy in form of ATP. However, this cellular respiration can either be aerobic or anaerobic depending on whether oxygen is used or not.

Aerobic cellular respiration is the respiration that involves the use of OXYGEN. It occurs in the mitochondria of the cell, where oxygen is used as the final electron acceptor. Hence, according to the question, OXYGEN is used up during cellular respiration.
