If by respiration you mean cell respiration, then yes oxygen is consumed in the process of cell respiration. As a matter of fact, oxygen is the last electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, the last stage of cell respiration. In cell respiration, you produce ATP, which is essentially used by your body to get energy. That is why you need oxygen!

I will use glucose and oxygen in a process called cellular respiration to create ATP.
Animals need oxygen to convert food into energy through a process called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose from food is broken down using oxygen to produce energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which the body uses for various functions.
either fermentation or respiration maybe...
The process of converting glucose (C6H1206) to energy in the form of ATP is known as anaerobic respiration in humans. The pathway involves glucose as a reactant yielding 2 lactic acids and 2 ATPs.
The energy releasing process that does not require oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. This is mainly used by organisms who live in areas with little oxygen such as at the bottom of the ocean.
Aerobic respiration requires oxygen; anaerobic respiration does not use oxygen.
Respiration uses oxygen, while fermentation does not use oxygen.
When there is no oxygen, or the organism cannot use oxygen for respiration.
Cellular respiration uses oxygen.
For starters, algae are plants. Plants never use oxygen. Animals use oxygen in the process of respiration. Decomposers use oxygen in the process of respiration when decomposing plants and animals including algae.
It undergoes anaerobic respiration, so it does not use oxygen in respiration and cannot survive in the presence of oxygen when it is in its vegetative form.
you use oxygen in your muscles to do work and anaerobic respiration uses oxygen.
Aerobic cellular respiration is the most common use for oxygen.
Oxygen is the gas that animals use in respiration. Plants use both oxygen and carbon dioxide. (This is assuming you mean cellular respiration.)
Respiration
Aerobic Respiration: Respiration that requires oxygen Anaerobic Respiration: respiration that does not use oxygen aerobic respiration is continuous. anaerobic respiration has no new subsrates from photosynthesis to continue. it is usually shorter and not as efficient.
Aerobic respiration uses oxygen as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, while anaerobic respiration does not require oxygen and uses other molecules such as nitrate, sulfate, or carbon dioxide.
