Cellular Respiration: Evolution
This is a picture of a tree at night. This photo represents cellular respiration because there is no light. During the day, when the sun is out plants do photosynthesis to create their own energy to eat and give oxygen back to the earth, win the use of the suns energy. The suns energy helps them make glucose, but what happens when the sun goes down? Trees and plants do cellular respiration to keep themselves alive and us too! During the night this tree cellular respiration happens in three main steps: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and electron transport. These three stages are evolutionary that a tree or anything as small as a four leaf clover can break dow sugars, go through fermentation, release CO2, ATP, and ultimately this energy is provided for themselves and oxygen for us.

Cellular Respiration
All organisms on Earth, including the ones below, undergo cellular respiration or at least glycolysis. Cellular Respiration takes place in the mitochondrion of all eukaryotes and it consists of converting glucose and O2 into CO2, H2O and chemical energy...

#87 Respiration, Glycolysis
Respiration is the oxidation of energy-containing organic molecules. The energy released from this process is used to combine ADP with inorganic phosphate to make ATP. All cells obtain useable energy through respiration. Most cells use carbohydrate,...
