2. Cellular respiration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_respiration

   Cellular respiration may be described as a set of metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert chemical energy from nutrients into ATP, and then release waste products. [1] Cellular respiration is a vital process that occurs in the cells of all [[plants and some bacteria ]].

3. Respiration (physiology) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiration_(physiology)

   Although physiologic respiration is necessary to sustain cellular respiration and thus life in animals, the processes are distinct: cellular respiration takes place in individual cells of the organism, while physiologic respiration concerns the diffusion and transport of metabolites between the organism and the external environment.

4. Carbohydrate metabolism - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_metabolism

   When animals and fungi consume plants, they use cellular respiration to break down these stored carbohydrates to make energy available to cells. [2] Both animals and plants temporarily store the released energy in the form of high-energy molecules, such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP), for use in various cellular processes. [3]

5. Bioenergetics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioenergetics

   Bioenergetics is a field in biochemistry and cell biology that concerns energy flow through living systems. [1] This is an active area of biological research that includes the study of the transformation of energy in living organisms and the study of thousands of different cellular processes such as cellular respiration and the many other metabolic and enzymatic processes that lead to ...

6. Adenosine diphosphate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adenosine_diphosphate

   Oxidative phosphorylation produces 26 of the 30 equivalents of ATP generated in cellular respiration by transferring electrons from NADH or FADH2 to O 2 through electron carriers. [10] The energy released when electrons are passed from higher-energy NADH or FADH2 to the lower-energy O 2 is required to phosphorylate ADP and once again generate ...

7. Cellular waste product - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_waste_product

   Cellular waste products are formed as a by-product of cellular respiration, a series of processes and reactions that generate energy for the cell, in the form of ATP. One example of cellular respiration creating cellular waste products are aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration .

8. Control of ventilation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_of_ventilation

   Ventilation facilitates respiration. Respiration refers to the utilization of oxygen and balancing of carbon dioxide by the body as a whole, or by individual cells in cellular respiration. [1] The most important function of breathing is the supplying of oxygen to the body and balancing of the carbon dioxide levels.

9. Community respiration - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Community_respiration

   Community respiration (CR) refers to the total amount of carbon-dioxide that is produced by individuals organisms in a given community, originating from the cellular respiration of organic material. CR is an important ecological index as it dictates the amount of production for the higher trophic levels and influence biogeochemical cycles . [ 1 ]
