In human beings respiration means air passing from the nose or mouth via respiratory passages to millions of balloon like sacs, called the alveoli in the lungs. The function of this respiration is to provide the energy the cells in any human body need because our cells get this energy mainly through metabolising glucose with oxygen and thus they need a constant supply of oxygen. Our waste products also need to be carried away by the metabolic process which is mainly carbon dioxide which must be carried away from the cells.
Our respiration includes the breathing of air into our lungs, the transfer of oxygen from the air into blood, the transportation of oxygen in our blood to our body cells , the metabolism of glucose with oxygen in our cells and the transport of carbon dioxide to the lungs to be breathed out. When we get involved in exercise, our respiration increases because it needs to compensate for higher energy demands by our muscle cells
Respiration is essential because it produces energy
Cellular respiration is one example. This process is essential for glucose metabolism to create ATP for life.
Respiration
Respiration is not the same as breathing. Breathing is called ventilation. On the other hand, respiration is a process, a chemical process where energy is released from substances such as glucose. To work, aerobic respiration needs oxygen and the energy created is used to allow muscles to contract in animals, and maintain a constant body temperature in mammals and birds.
It is really cool.
The sum of all life processes is metabolism.

Respiration
That is the respiration. They conduct aerobic respiration
Respiration
Cellular respiration is the process by which energy is released from food molecules and stored in molecules of ATP, the energy currency of the cell. Without ATP cells could not function.

Hydrogen ions, H+ , are important to life because they're essential to the processes of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration. The latter process is essential for all life. Chemiosmosis is the name given to the process of a flow of H+ causing some sort of energy flow.
