Cells undergoing the aerobic respiration produce 6 molecules of carbon dioxide , 6 molecules of water and up-to 30 molecules of ATP (adenosine triposphate ) which is directly used to produce energy from each molecule of glucose in the presence of surplus oxygen.

Answer:
ATP is usable form of energy produced during cellular respiration.
Explanation:
- A glucose molecule gradually decomposes into carbon dioxide and water during cellular respiration. In the process of transforming glucose, some ATP is directly created.
- But far more ATP is later created through a procedure known as oxidative phosphorylation.
- The electron transport chain, a collection of proteins enmeshed in the inner membrane of the mitochondrion, is what drives oxidative phosphorylation.
- Without oxygen, glycolysis can occur through a process known as fermentation.
- The citric acid cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and the other three phases of cellular respiration all require oxygen to function.
- Only oxidative phosphorylation directly utilizes oxygen, although the other two steps are unable to function without it.
Therefore, ATP is the usable form of energy produced during cellular respiration.
