It's more efficient.
The general term for cells extracting stored energy is "cellular respiration." Despite the name, this doesn't necessarily involve breathing or even elemental oxygen; however, the type that does is a lot more efficient than the type that doesn't.
Animals breathe in order to take in oxygen so their cells can use the more efficient pathway.
We need to breathe oxygen.
Oxygen is the gas humans and animals need to breathe in.
You need to breathe oxygen to stay alive. Oxygen is essential for the process of respiration, where your body cells convert oxygen into energy.
All animals have to breathe carbon dioxide (CO2) as CO2 is in the air everywhere. Animals only use somewhere between none and a trace amount of CO2.
It is how we breathe and stay alive.
because it is QUITE
We can't breathe water, but we need to drink it to hydrate and stay alive.
Animals and humans eat food to stay alive. Metabolic processes break down the food (plants and animals) to obtain energy, and the materials needed to build and repair the body.
Animals need food to stay alive because food gives them nutrients and energy. Nutrients and energy are both important because they help the bodies of animals function.
Animals stay alive in hibernation as this is a natural process.
