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.

Respiration is a pure exothermic reaction because when we exhale there us carbon dioxide along with the residual oxygen and with certain amount of water vapour.
