Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells, where it converts glucose and oxygen into energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). The process consists of three main stages: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. In prokaryotic cells, which lack mitochondria, cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm and across the cell membrane. Overall, cellular respiration is essential for providing the energy necessary for cellular functions.
