Question

Respiration is the energy releasing process. What your opinion on this statement

Answer 1

Answer:

yes I agree this statement because it is the process of break down of glucose to release energy for various activities

Answer 2

The statement is completely true, respiration is the energy-releasing process.

• Respiration is a metabolic process that occurs within all living cells (cellular respiration).
• A suitable substrate (generally glucose) is broken into simpler molecules using biochemical reactions and enzymes to produce simpler molecules.
• This conversion is a multistep process and energy is released in each step.
• This energy is trapped in ATP molecules and utilized when needed.
• This conversion can happen in the presence or absence of oxygen. The process is then called aerobic and anaerobic respiration respectively.
