  • Eukaryotes, including all multicellular organisms and some single-celled organisms, use aerobic respiration to produce energy.
  • Prokaryotic organisms such as bacteria and archaebacteria can use other forms of respiration, which are somewhat less efficient.

All living beings perform cellular respiration to turn organic molecules into energy.

Explanation:

  • The chemical process of breaking down food molecules to produce energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate is known as cellular respiration (ATP).
  • This mechanism allows the organism to use energy from food molecules to carry out life processes. Cellular respiration occurs in both, presence and absence of oxygen.
  • Cellular respiration in the presence of oxygen is called aerobic respiration. Example - All the animals including humans and, birds, insects, grasshoppers, etc.
  • Anaerobic respiration takes place when oxygen is not present or present in very low amounts. Prokaryotes, including some species of bacteria and archaea, use anaerobic respiration.
