Answer Details
Cellular respiration is a process that converts glucose and oxygen into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the primary energy currency of cells. During cellular respiration, the energy is made available to organisms by breaking off a phosphate group from ATP. When ATP loses one of its phosphate groups, it becomes ADP (adenosine diphosphate), and energy is released. This energy is used by the cell for various functions like muscle contraction, active transport, and synthesis of molecules.
