Enzymes - biological catalysts.
Cellular respiration occurs when cells oxidize food molecules into carbon dioxide and water. Cellular respiration is the process that cells use to get their energy.
Cellular Respiration
One gas is oxygen
Yes, they do use oxygen to carry out cellular respiration.
Cellular respiration is one of the processes that cells perform. Organisms do not perform this process. Instead they perform respiration. Cells use cellular respiration to obtain one of the three sources needed for them to live- oxygen. Without this process, cells would not be able to perform other functions.

cellular respiration
Cells use oxygen as the main gas in cellular respiration. Oxygen is used for the process of oxidative phosphorylation to produce ATP, the cell's main source of energy. Additionally, cells also produce carbon dioxide as a byproduct of cellular respiration.
Most eukaryotic cells have mitochondria.
Cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria of cells. The process involves breaking down glucose to produce energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) that cells can use for various activities.
