They burn energy from ATP molecules and produce carbon dioxide. Then they wait for diffusion of oxygen to enter and 'recharge the ADP molecules back into ATP molecules so they can burn them again. As a simpler way to say it: In tissue respiration carbon dioxide is released and oxygen is re-absorbed.

This the word equation for celluar respiration:

C6H12O6 + 6O2 -------------------> 6CO2 + 6H2O + ~38 ATP

What happens doing respiration?

In respiration, you breathe in oxygen and it goes into your blood and round to all your cells in the body and out of the cells come carbon dioxide as their waste product and that is why you breathe out carbon dioxide which is the consequense of RESPIRATION!


What happens to the oxygen you breathe in?

It dissolves into the bloodsteam and is used in cells by the mitochondria for respiration.

What does the delivery of oxygen to cells to do?

Oxygen is used by cells for the process of respiration. Respiration is the release of energy from food. When this happens using oxygen it is called aerobic respiration: glucose + oxygen ----> water + carbon dioxide + ENERGY IRON

What organelle does photosynthesis and cellular respiration occur in?

Respiration occurs in two compartments - glycolysis in the cytoplasm and the TCA cycle and electron transport chain in the mitochondria. However, cells that are actively photosynthesising do not need to respire because ATP is synthesised in the chloroplast.


When does aerobic respiration happen?

Aerobic respiration happens when there is a usable energy source near the cell.


What type of cells obtain energy from cellular respiration?

All cells obtain energy from cellular respiration. Some undergo anaerobic respiration and some undergo aerobic respiration.
