Answer

The correct equation representing aerobic cellular respiration is:**C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy**The other options are incorrect because they either omit a product (water) or have the reactants and products reversed. Aerobic cellular respiration uses glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) and oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂), water (H₂O), and energy (in the form of ATP).
