Ok. Respiration is a process that produces ATP, and it doesn't use the ATP it creates. Respiration (unlike glycolysis) uses oxygen, and is a much more efficient way of producing ATP. Dehydrogenation is a process that eliminates hydrogen. ATP (adenosine triphosphate) contains 16 atoms of hydrogen, so based on this I would guess that Dehydrogenation would play a part in releasing the energy held in ATP, however, as the energy is released ATP loses phosphate (because it goes from adenosine TRIphosphate to adenosine DIphosphate and so on) . I would say though, to answer your question, its Respiration because that is the only one up there that acutally produces ATP.
