The glucose breakdown pathway in case of aerobic  respiration:

  • The glucose breakdown or glycolysis which takes part in the "presence of oxygen" is called aerobic respiration.
  • Glucose gets completely oxidized to form "carbon dioxide and water" along with release of energy or the energy molecules adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

                 \mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_{6}+6 \mathrm{O}_{2} \rightarrow 6 \mathrm{CO}_{2}+6 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}+ Energy (ATP)

  • Glucose upon glycolysis gets converted to pyruvate.
  • Pyruvate in the 'presence of oxygen' undergoes the processes of oxidative decarboxylation, Kreb’s cycle, electron transport chain, and finally releases {CO}_{2}, 'Water' and '36 molecules of ATP'.

The answer of the fill in the blanks are,

1. Pyruvate.

2. Energy.

3. Presence of Oxygen.

4. Mitochondria.

5. Carbon dioxide.

6. Water.
