Write any 3 differences between breathing and respiration?
Answers
Answer:
Breathing Cellular Respiration
Definition
Breathing involves the process of inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide Cellular respiration is the process of breaking down of glucose to produce energy, which is then used by cells to carry out the cellular function.
Process Occurrence
Breathing takes place in the lungs. Also involves the nose, mouth and pharynx Respiration takes place in cells
Type of Process
Breathing is voluntary as well as an involuntary physical process. (For example, breathing during sleep is involuntary. Voluntary breathing is observed when we sing, speak, swim or for relaxation techniques) Respiration is an involuntary chemical process.
Production of Energy
There is no production of energy in this process. Energy is produced and released in the form of ATP.
Cellular Activity
As it occurs outside cells, it is called the extracellular process. (Occurs between the organism and the external environment) As it occurs inside cells, it is called the intracellular process.
Enzyme used
No enzymes are used during the process. A large number of enzymes are used during the process.
Associated Organs
Breathing occurs through respiratory organs, including the nose, lungs, etc. Respiration takes place in cells and cell organelles, including mitochondria, etc.
