Answer:
Respiration is another exothermic reaction. and this reaction releases energy. However, energy is usually transferred as heat energy, so one way to tell if a chemical reaction is happening is to use a thermometer. If the temperature increases during a chemical reaction then that is an exothermic reaction.
