A reaction in living things that turns sugar and oxygen into carbon dioxide?

Answer 1

The process is called photosynthesis. It occurs in most green plants (mainly in the leaves).

Simplistically: Plants use atmospheric carbon dioxide and combine it with water in the presence of sunlight to produce glucose (sugars) and water.

The plants then use the sugars to "fuel" metabolic and growth functions; during the process of "respiration" the sugars are broken down releasing energy and oxygen - the latter is expelled by the plant.

The chemical process is as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O + light energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2

Answer 2

This process is called cellular respiration. It occurs in the mitochondria of cells and is responsible for converting sugar (glucose) and oxygen into usable energy (ATP), as well as generating carbon dioxide as a byproduct.

Answer 3

The respiration process and it is called also oxidation or burning process.
