Answer: Oxygen

Step-by-step explanation:

During the process of cellular respiration, oxygen molecules combine with the hydrogen atoms. In this process glucose is broken down in order to release carbon and water as a by product.

The energy released during this process is stored in the form of adenosine tri phosphate.

This is used by the cells when energy is required by the body.
