Answer:
Cellular respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert chemical energy from oxygen molecules or nutrients into adenosine triphosphate, and then release waste products

- Cellular respiration is a series of metabolic activities and processes that occur within animals' cells to transform chemical energy from oxygen moleculor nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and subsequently release waste products.
- The processes that occur during respiration are catabolic, meaning they break big molecules into smaller ones, releasing energy when weak high-energy connections, such as those found in molecular oxygen, are replaced by stronger bonds in the products.
- One of the most important methods for a cell to discharge chemical energy to sustain its activities is through respiration.
- A variety of biological stages, including certain redox reactions, make up the total reaction.
- Although cellular respiration is technically a combustion process, because of the gradual, controlled release of energy from the chain of reactions, it definitely does not resemble one when it occurs in a live cell.
