Respiration is a type of combustion because food products are burned to give carbon dioxide, energy and water.

• Respiration is a type of combustion beacuse in both respiration and combustion oxygen is used to burn things.

• The final products formed by respiration and combustion are same hence respiration is a type of combustion.
