∙ 9y agoCellular respiration provides energy (in the form of ATP) for the cell to perform its numerous metabolic reactions efficiently. Cellular respiration primarily involves the mitochondria, while the first stage occurs in the cytosol. Glucose is utilised as a substrate for cellular respiration, which should be distinguished from external respiration (aka breathing).

Cellular respiration is the process where the cells harness the energy that is stored in the food. Glycolysis splits sugars and without oxygen, small amounts of ATP can be produced.

What kind of organisms carry out respiration?
Anaerobes like archaebacteria and other microorganisms
What type of organisms does Cell Respiration occurs in?
organisms that do cellular respiration are bacteria, protists, fungi, plants, and animals.
Why does every living organism depend on respiration?
laughter and a lot of tea for the da,hfdskufhaigrwbf
What is cellular respiration performed by?
All living things are capable of anerobic respiration to some extent. It happens when there is insufficent oxygen to the task at hand. For instance when you work-out at the gym and get sore muscles - the soreness is (in part) due to the presence of Latic Acid in you, a by-product of anerobic respiration. Some organisms use anaerobic respiration exclusively: decomposing bacteria and fungi.
Organisms that conduct cellular respiration?
Wow, you don't have a biology book? It should contain this information. Well, all animals perform cellular respiration. Humans are a good, easy example. We do cellular respiration aerobically (using oxygen, also called breathing. haha) and anaerobically (without oxygen, lactic acid fermentation).
What is respiration performed by?
Cells [in the body or other living organism(s)]. Cellular respiration.
What type of organism uses cellular respiration for energy needs?
Respiration is common to every organisms.Every living organisms does respiration.
What type of organism uses cellular respiration to produce energy?
Every living organism does. It is a fundamental process
What is the name of the process that releases energy from food in every living organism?
photosynthesis

Do all living thing perform the process of cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is where the fuel that an organism eats is broken down into energy that fuels all of the actions that occur in its body. Basically, it had to respirate or it wouldn't be able to function.

Why do the cells of all living things carry out cellular respiration continuously?
Living things use energy in order to live, so we are constantly using converting ATP to ADP in order to get that energy. Cellular respiration replenishes the ATP by converting ADP back into ATP, which living things use for energy. Without cellular respiration an organism would die from lack of ATP, and therefore a lack of energy.
What type of organisms uses cellular respiration for cellular energy?
Respiration is common to every organisms.Every living organisms does respiration.
