B) Oxygen
C) energy
Eliminate
D) sugar

Answer 1

C) Energy             .     .            .             .                .                  .               .               .

Answer 2

When the glucose molecules are broken in the presence of oxygen, it leads to the formation of the energy in the form of ATP (Adenosine triphosphate). The breakdown of the glucose molecules in the presence of oxygen occurs during the process of the aerobic respiration. The cellular aerobic respiration produces the energy which is used for the various vital life processes.

Hence, the answer is option (c) - energy.
