Answer:

Glucose and Oxygen are the key reactant that is needed to drive cellular respiration. Respiration is a energy releasing process in which energy is released due to the breakdown of glucose molecules with the help of oxygen which produces carbondioxide, water and energy in the form of Adenine tri phosphate (ATP). Carbondioxode is a waste product which is removed from the cell and ATP is used by the cell for performing different functions.
