Glucose

Step-by-step explanation:

"Cellular respiration is the aerobic process by which living cells break down glucose molecules, release energy, and form molecules of ATP. ... In this step, enzymes split a molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate, which releases energy that is transferred to ATP."
