Explain the process of respiration.

Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining oxygen and glucose, resulting in the release of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP (the currency of energy in cells). ... Note the number of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water molecules involved in each 'turn' of the process

Respiration is the biochemical process in which the cells of an organism obtain energy by combining oxygen and glucose, resulting in the release of carbon dioxide, water, and ATP. The function of respiratory system is to breathe in oxygen for respiration producing energy from food, and to breathe out carbon dioxide produced by respiration. ... Gases exchanged are oxygen and carbon dioxide.
