Yes, cellular respiration is an example of an exergonic reaction (releasing energy for usage) as opposed to photosynthesis (the plant's need the sun's energy to create glucose) an endergonic reaction.
Why? Cellular respiration breaks down glucose molecules(which contain energy), so energy is released. The reactants start with a high level of energy(the reactants are whole glucose molecules) and the products are created with a low level of energy because energy is released. The energy that is released from this process can be used to perform work in the cell.
No, it releases energy.

∙ 7y agoAerobic cellular respiration is exergonic. Energy in the form of ATP is being released.
Respiration is energy releasing process. It is also a catabolic process
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoIt is always exergonic ... it makes energy.

∙ 7y agoThe odd thing about this is that it is both. It uses 2ATP to start the reaction and produces 36ATP (net).

it is exothermic because In keeping with law of conservation of energy, cellular respiration is exothermic and photosynthesis is endothermic.

What type of reaction is cellular respiration?
The reaction don't have to deal with the equation
Aerobic respiration is classified as?
Aerobic respiration is classified as cellular respiration. This is the type of respiration that requires oxygen so as to release energy in form of ATP.
How does a fish use aerobic cellular respiration?
Gills split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen, used for aerobic cellular respiration.
What type of cellular respiration produces more energy?
The most energy (measured by ATP production) produced in cellular respiration is in the Electron Transport Chain/System through oxidative phosphorylation.
Which generates more energy from the sugar molecule aerobic or anaerobic cellular respiration?
Aerobic cellular respiration produces a net gain of 36 ATP per glucose molecule. Anaerobic respiration produces a net gain of 2 ATP per glucose molecules.Aerobic cellular respiration produces 15 times more energy from sugar than anaerobic cellular respiration. :-)
Is cellular respiration exergonic or endergonic?
Cellular respiration, or aerobic cellular respiration, is exergonic because energy is released from the breakdown of glucose and therefore the products have less energy then the starting substance.
Do exergonic reactions occur when ADP binds to inorganic phosphate to form ATP?
No, it occurs during aerobic cellular respiration.
What are the two reactions of aerobic cellular respiration?
The twwo reactants for aerobic cellular respiration are glucose and oxygen
What type of cellular respiration forms the most ATP?
aerobic cellular respiration
What type of reaction is cellular respiration?
The reaction don't have to deal with the equation
Why is cellular respiration an aerobic respiration?
Because cellular respiration occurs in the presence of oxygen.
Aerobic respiration is classified as?
Aerobic respiration is classified as cellular respiration. This is the type of respiration that requires oxygen so as to release energy in form of ATP.
Which of cellular respiration are aerobic and which are anaerobic?
Cellular respiration is mostly aerobic.
A chemical reaction such as cellular respiration that releases free energy?
glucose and other food molecules
What is aerobic in cellular respiration?
glucose
What molecule is used during aerobic respiration?
Cellular respiration can be aerobic and anaerobic. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, anaerobic respiration does not need oxygen.
How does a fish use aerobic cellular respiration?
Gills split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen, used for aerobic cellular respiration.
