Answer: Cellular respiration

Explanation:

Cellular respiration can be defined as the process by which the glucose is converted into adenosine tri phosphate. The conversion of the glucose molecule into adenosine tri phosphate take place in the mitochondria of the cell.

The energy that is required by the cells is fulfilled by this molecule only. The plants and the animals both gets energy by this process.

Hence, the correct answer is cellular respiration.
