Answered step-by-step

The equation for aerobic respiration, which occurs in the presence of oxygen, can be represented as follows:

In this equation:

Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is the primary fuel source.

Oxygen (O₂) is required for the process.
The products of aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O), along with energy in the form of ATP .

This process is vital for most eukaryotic organisms, allowing them to efficiently convert glucose into usable energy while releasing carbon dioxide and water as by-products.
