What events occurs during respiration?

During respiration, which includes both breathing and cellular respiration, the intake of oxygen and release of carbon dioxide take place. In breathing, air is inhaled through the nose and mouth, travels to the lungs where oxygen is taken up, and carbon dioxide is expelled. In cellular respiration, the oxygen taken up in the lungs is used by cells to produce energy, and carbon dioxide is produced as a byproduct.


Does a carbohydrate have to be both starch and sugar or can it be just starch or sugar?

Carbohydrates are made up of a large group of organic compounds which include both starch and sugar. Sugar is the simplest form, and they supply energy to living cells for respiration. Sugar can be stored as starch (which is insoluble). Starch can be broken down into sugar when it is needed for respiration. Both sugar and starch are carbohydrates.Carbohydrates are usually classified into 4 categories:monosaccharides (aka simple sugars) like glucose, fructose, galactose, ribose, and xylosedisaccharides like sucrose, lactose, and maltosedigestible polysaccharides like amylose (aka starch), and glycogenindigestible polysaccharides (aka fiber) like cellulose, chitin, and peptidoglycanAll are composed only of the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

Oxygen is used up in this energy releasing process?

The energy-releasing process you are referring to is cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to release energy. Oxygen is used as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
