Mitochondria burn glucose in respiration.They produce ATP at last.
Oxygen mixes with glucose through the process of cellular respiration to create energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) in our cells. This process occurs in the mitochondria of cells and is essential for providing energy for various cellular functions.
The cell organelles that burn glucose and provide ATP for active transport are the mitochondria. Mitochondria are known as the powerhouse of the cell because they generate energy through cellular respiration, producing ATP as a byproduct which is used for cellular functions such as active transport.
Respiration is the process by which organisms burn food to produce energy. The starting material of cellular respiration is the sugar glucose, which has energy stored in its chemical bonds. You can think of glucose as a kind of cellular piece of coal: chock-full of energy, but useless when you want to power a stereo. Just as burning coal produces heat and energy in the form of electricity, the chemical processes of respiration convert the energy in glucose into usable form.
The process you are referring to is called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, oxygen is used to break down glucose molecules to produce ATP, which is the main source of energy for most cellular processes. This occurs in the mitochondria of cells and involves multiple steps, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and the electron transport chain.
This process is called cellular respiration. It occurs in the mitochondria of cells and involves breaking down glucose (sugar) in the presence of oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

They store energy in ATP.CO2 and water is removed.
glucose
Oxygen mixes with glucose through the process of cellular respiration to create energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) in our cells. This process occurs in the mitochondria of cells and is essential for providing energy for various cellular functions.
Glucose is broken down during cellular respiration to produce a form of energy the cell can use.The first stage, glycolysis, occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. The other phases occur in the mitochondria.

The function of the lungs when breathing is to pull in the oxygen our mitochondria need to burn sugar and remove the CO2 our mitochondria generate after breaking the sugar down( sugar can't be burnt without oxygen and we can't get oxygen to all our cells without lungs).
they are both used to release energy out of oxygen
While oxygen is essential for the process of producing energy in our cells through cellular respiration, it does not directly give us energy. Instead, oxygen helps in the breakdown of nutrients like glucose to release energy that our body can use.
