The respiratory system brings air into the lungs supplying the blood with oxygen. Oxygen is carried throughout the body to the organs and keeps the heart pumping and when the blood circulates back to the lungs the process starts over again.
Large amounts of ATP are generated when the body cells function with adequate oxygen. ATP molecules are the energy currency of the cells; cells derived the energy they need for their activities from the metabolism of ATP molecules. ATP need oxygen in order to function maximally.
