Answer:

Glucose is oxidised to release its energy, which is then stored in ATP molecules. Aerobic respiration breaks down glucose and combines the broken down products with oxygen, making water and carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide is a waste product of aerobic respiration because cells do not need it.
