Answer:

B. requires oxygen.

Step-by-step explanation:

Respiration is the aerobic break down of glucose to make energy. Aerobic means that it requires oxygen to occur. Fermentation on the other hand is the anaerobic break down of glucose to make energy. The only difference is that fermantation happens in the absence of oxygen
