Cellular Respiration is when plant and animal cells release energy stored in the bonds of glucose molecules.
Aerobic respiration is the process.It releases the glucose's energy through oxidation.
When sugar is digested in an animal cell, it is broken down into glucose molecules. Glucose is used by the cell to produce energy through cellular respiration. Additionally, any excess glucose can be stored as glycogen for later use.
In respiration of animals glucose molecules breaks up releases amount of energy heat is given out thats why it is exothermic.but in plants it absorbs sunlight heat is used for preparing food so it is endothermic.
Oxygen and glucose are the raw materials. Enzymes guides the process
The storage form is called glycogen and is usually found in the liver.
38 ATP molecules are produced from the break down of a gluecose molecule

When sugar is digested in an animal cell, it is broken down into glucose molecules. Glucose is then used as a source of energy to fuel the cell's activities through the process of cellular respiration. Additionally, excess glucose may be stored in the form of glycogen for later use.

Animals do not store glucose in starch molecules, but rather in glycogen molecules. Starch molecules have infrequent branching of glucose chains and as such are not readily broken down into glucose monomers by the enzymes that catalyze the reaction. Glycogen molecules follow the same basic structure as starch molecules, but instead have more branching and consequently are broken down easier. This allows for quicker "burst" energy and is better suited to animals' mobility.
In order to keep the osmotic pressure in the cell constant, starch and glycogen molecules are a means for a plant or animal cell to store glucose. Cells require sugar or glucose as a source of energy for many different functions.
Actualy glycogen is not a protein but it is a polymer of glucose molecules stored in animal bodies and used as energy source when needed.

Plants produce glucose through photosynthesis, a process where they use sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to create glucose and oxygen. Animals obtain glucose by consuming plants, or by consuming other animals that have consumed plants. Glucose is then used as a source of energy in both plants and animals through the process of cellular respiration.
