Question

respiration is not essentially a process of combustion why

Answer 1

Respiration is the chemical reaction in which energy is released from a reaction between Oxygen (O2) and Glucose (C6H12O6) Respiration releases energy for cells from glucose. ... Combustion (a.k.a burning) Combustion is essentially burning, fuels react with oxygen to release energy.

Answer 2

Yes, its not. Combustion is when a something burns in presence of oxygen to give out energy. Respiration is an amphibolic pathway. Things dont burn. The complex ones breakdown and undergo reactions to form something useful for our body.It is not a combustion process as it does not require heat and does not produce fire.
