Best Answer

In order for cellular respiration to begin, two ATP molecules must be used up in order to breakdown the glucose molecule. Fortunately, the net gain of ATP from the first stage of cellular respiration, glycolysis, is 2 ATP. So even if oxygen is not present and fermentation has to occur, ATP is still made and not lost. However, if cellular respiration proceeds to the Krebs Cycle and carries out it's desired function, then a net gain of 36 ATP molecules will be made.

Does cell respiration take place in animals?

Considering that cellular respiration takes place in humans, which are a "higher" form of animals, you can assume that cellular respiration can also take place in all other animals. Without cellular respiration, the animals would have no form of cellular energy, ATP, and would start to die off.
