__‍‍‍‍CELLULAR RESPIRATION‍‍‍‍‍__ By: Dev Browning Murillo  and  Octavian Theoret __// What is Cellular Respiration? //__ Cellular Respiration is a decompisition reaction,this means that a substance breaks into two or more simpler components.Cellular Respiration is essentially the process where our body uses cells to perserve the energy that is in our food. Cellular Respiration captures the food in a form of energy called ATP. //__ Why is Cellular Respiration so Important? __// Cellular Respiration is important to life because without it we wouldn't have the ability to convert our food to energy meaning, humans wouldn't have energy in their day to day lives.Cellular Respiration is the oxidation of organic compounds that occurs within cells, which then produces energy for the cellular process. Cellular respiration occurs in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells, unlike prokaryotic cells, are complex cells. Eukaryotic cells make up all plants, animals and fungi while prokaryotic include only simple bacteria. Cellular Respiration has three main stages: Glycolysis, The Krebs cycle, and Electron Transport Chain. // __The Equation: __ // //C6H12O6+6O2-->6CO2+6H2O+ ~38 ATP // //__ What makes up this equation? __// Glucose + Oxygen>Carbon Dioxide + Water + Energy This Equation contains 3 different elements; Hydrogen, Oxygen and Carbon. Three compounds; Glucose, Water and Carbon Dioxide Cellular Respiration is a Aerobic Reaction, which is the breakdown of food using oxygen. This happens in the mitochondria and creates water, Carbon dioxide and ATP. An ATP, or Adenosine Triphosphate, temporarily stores energy and is later released which then fuels the metabolic chemical reactions, that is required by all living organisms.

//__ Why is Cellular Respiration important on a daily basis? __// Cellular Respiration is vital to most living organisms. It provides them with energy to perform work and everyday tasks. Therefore, Cellular respiration is responsible for sustaining and maintaining life. Without this process, humans and animals would no longer be able to produce energy. Soon, humans lack of energy would eventually lead to the deaths of practically all living organisms.
