Answer:
Respiration involves the oxidation of glucose, to produce energy(38 ATP) from cells.
The energy produced is actually heat energy, so, as heat is released,
Respiration is an exothermic process.
C6H12O6+6O2→6CO2+6H2O+energy (38 atp)
The reactionis exothermic because the C=O and O-H bonds in the products are so much more stable than the bonds in the reactants.
