Respiration

1. Respiration is a biochemical process that occurs inside living cells.  
2. It is a slow process which releases energy in small steps and is stored as ATP.  
3. The process involves various enzymes.  
4. A part of the energy is liberated as heat.    
5. Oxygen is used as an oxidant in the last step of the process.  
6. Respiration takes place at normal temperature.  

Combustion

1. It is a physicochemical process which is non-cellular.  
2. It is a fast process which releases energy in one step with the increase in temperature.  
3. No enzymes are involved in such process.
4. Most of the energy is liberated as heat.
5. Oxygen is used directly in the process
6. Combustion takes place at high temperature.
