Question

Answer 1

respiration is the process by which complex compounds are broken down to simpler ones to release energy.

Answer 2

RESPIRATION

Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining oxygen and glucose, resulting in the release of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (the currency of energy in cells).

METABOLISM

Metabolism is a term that is used to describe all chemical reactions involved in maintaining the living state of the cells and the organism. Metabolism can be conveniently divided into two categories:

Catabolism - the breakdown of molecules to obtain energy

Anabolism - the synthesis of all compounds needed by the cells
