Answer:

A.) Carbon Dioxide

Step-by-step explanation:

The main purpose of cellular respiration is to produce ATP. However, one of the byproducts is carbon dioxide. We use the process of cellular respiration when we take in oxygen (so oxygen isn't the answer) and breathe out CO2. Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria, but that's not what's released.

Hope this helps!
