Answer:

Sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not completely sure but correct me if I am wrong. Through the process of cellular respiration, the energy in food is converted into energy that can be used by the body's cells. During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide and water, and the energy is transferred to ATP.

Hope it helps!!!!
