Your answer would be oxygen because when doing moderate to vigorous workouts, your body needs more oxygen to be supplied to your muscles.

The correct answer is: Oxygen

Step-by-step explanation:
In order to function properly (movement etc.) during exercise, muscles require oxygen. During exercise, the depth as well as the rate of breathing increase, which in turn increases the amount of oxygen inhaled. In order to expand and contract lungs and for other bodily movements, muscles require oxygen, and for that, more oxygen is carried in the blood to muscles. Hence, the correct answer is Oxygen.
