- Rusting is a chemical process and Respiration is a biological process.
- Respiration is a fast process where as rusting is a slow process.
- Rusting take place only in iron and its alloys and while the majority of anaerobic and aerobic respiration respectively occurs in the cytoplasm and mitochondria of the cell, respectively.
- Respiration does not required any external heat to carry on the process. While rusting required external heat to carry on the process.
