Answer:

Glucose and oxygen react together in cells to produce carbon dioxide and water and releases energy. The reaction is called aerobic respiration because oxygen from the air is needed for it to work. Energy is released in the reaction. The mitochondria , found in the cell cytoplasm, are where most respiration happens.
