Cellular respiration is a crucial role in which the powerhouses, ATP generators, or more commonly known, mitochondria take care of.
Depending on what type of cell, the process varies but at the very core of ideas, mitochondria converts sugars (carbohydrates) into usable forms of energy. Cells cannot take and use carbohydrates in its raw form to perform its daily routine. Instead, mitochondria breaks down sugars and forms them into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which reduces waste and packs these sugars into small packages that are usable by the cells.
In plant cells, this process occurs after chloroplasts have converted the light energy, carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates and oxygen. Mitochondria convert carbohydrates into adenosine triphosphate just like animal cells do.
This process is simply known as cellular respiration.

∙ 13y agoCellular respiration Involves the following reaction:
C6H12O6+602==>6CO2+6H20+energy(in the form of adenosine triphosphate)
So Carbon Dioxide, Water, and adenosine triphosphate are made from cellular respiration

What makes energy for a plant or animal cell?
Mitochondrion are sites of cellular respiration in a cell, which produces energy in the form of ATP.
What can mitochondria make?
they are the sites of respiration, so they make CO2 water and energy try cellular respiration
Do photosynthesis and cellular respiration relate to each other?
Photosynthesis makes the energy(ATP), then the cellular respiration breaks it down to create food. The Formula is similar, but in opposite directions.
What cellular process makes most of the cell's ATP?
cellular respiration
Why is cellular respiration important to organic organisms?
Without it, they could not survive because this process makes energy.
What makes energy from glucose?
Cellular Respiration
What is the opposite reaction of photosynthesis called?
Photosynthesis is the opposite reaction of cellular respiration. Photosynthesis makes sugar to store energy, while cellular respiration breaks down sugar to use energy.
What organelle makes most of a cells ATP energy through cellular respiration?
Mitochondria are responsible for cellular respiration.
What best describes the difference between photosynthesis in the chloroplast and cellular respiration in the mitochondiria?
Photosynthesis makes glucose molecules, but cellular respiration breaks them down.

What does cellular respiration use and make?
Cellular respiration is a chemical reaction where glucose and oxygen are broken down into carbon dioxide, water and heat energy. This is the energy that our body's need to survive. This reaction takes place in a cell called the mitochondria, often found in muscles
What cellular process makes most of the cell's ATP?
cellular respiration
What is the role of ADP in respiration?
if by resperation, you mean cellular respiration, then using glucose and oxygen, Cellular Respiration makes carbon dioxide, water, and chemical energy in the form of 36 ATP
Why is cellular respiration important organic organism?
Without it, they could not survive because this process makes energy.
