Cellular respiration need to happen "to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products. The reactions involved in respiration are catabolic reactions that involve the oxidation of one molecule and the reduction of another."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_respirationBasically, it needs to turn energy from Nutrients to ATP. (Simplified Version) :D
