The human body respirates through our cells. When we breathe in oxygen, the body delivers this oxygen to the heart and then to the lungs where gas exchange occurs. The oxygen enters the capillaries and then the red blood cells. The oxygen that has entered the blood cells is then delivered to every part of the body. This oxygen and the glucose exctracted from the breakdown of foods is used to create energy. The "by-products" from this process are Carbon dioxide and Water which are disposed when we breathe out or exhale. Some of the water is stored in our body then the rest is exhaled, which can be seen when your breath creates steam on a window.

How is the combustion of propane similar to cellular respiration?

If the combustion of propane isn't getting enough oxygen it is incomplete and it would be a smokey yellow flame. For humans we depend on chemical potential energy from plants and animals. Propane combustion and cellular respiration are different because propane combustion depends on oxygen to fuel it and humans depend on chemical potential energy to fuel themselves.
