We take items of wheat , rice , potatoes etc. in form of food. They contain carbohydrates. During the process of digestion, carbohydrates are broken down into simpler substances such as glucose . During the process of respiration glucose molecules combine with oxygen in cells and produce energy large amount of energy. Thats why respiration is considered as exothermic reaction .
