Best Answer

Organs are a collection of tissues, which are in turn a collection of cells.

Cells produce ATP from glucose and this processes (glycolysis and then krebs' cycle) require O2 to help form CO2 to release energy from the carbon-carbon chain.

Watch a video on how the kreb's cycle work and watch for the oxygen that is inserted in the system.
