The answer is the last one (E): 6.

Explanation for each option: A. 2 - Incorrect. This number is too low for the complete aerobic breakdown of one glucose molecule. B. 3 - Incorrect. This number is also too low. C. 4 - Incorrect. This number is still too low. D. 5 - Incorrect. This number is close but still not accurate. E. 6 - Correct. The complete aerobic breakdown of one glucose molecule (C6H12O6) through cellular respiration produces six molecules of carbon dioxide (CO2).
