Answer:

Explanation:

while respiration a molecule of glucose is completely or incompletely oxidized during aerobic and anaerobic respiration respectively

in aerobic respiration a molecule of glucose is completely oxidized through 3 steps glycolysis,TCA cycle and electron transfer chain reaction to form 38 ATP molecules along with carbon dioxide and water as by products in this process 2 ATP molecules are released

since energy is released in this process respiration is termed as exothermic reaction
