Show transcript
Cellular respiration happens continuously in all living organisms to transfer the energy needed for life processes. Cellular respiration is an exothermic chemical process that uses glucose as a fuel, and makes ATP. Word equation and balanced symbol equation summarises the reactants and products of aerobic cellular respiration. Aerobic cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells. Aerobic cellular respiration takes place in the cytoplasm of prokaryotic cells, which do not have mitochondria.
