Which one of the following describes the process of aerobic cellular respiration?

a. a process that uses nitrogen molecules from the air to make nitrogenous compounds in living things
b. a process of energy conversion that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen, forming new compounds
c. a process of energy conversion that captures light energy and transforms it into chemical energy
d. a process of energy transfer that converts liquid water into water vapor

The correct answer is option B. "a process of energy conversion that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen, forming new compounds".

Explanation:

Aerobic cellular respiration is a biological processes performed mainly by eukaryotic cells at the mitochondria. Basically, aerobic cellular respiration is a process of energy conversion that releases energy from food in the presence of oxygen, forming new compounds. During aerobic cellular respiration glucose, the main fountain of food energy, is broken down in the presence of oxygen into Adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the molecule that carries energy to most biological processes.
