Answer:
Breathing and cellular respiration are complementary processes that enable the body to produce energy by taken in oxygen which is required for the chemicals contained in food to be broken down there by producing, energy, water and carbon dioxide. The breathing and cellular respiration process also enables the removal of the produced carbon dioxide finally through nose and/or mouth
Explanation:
In cellular respiration, glucose molecules in the presence of oxygen gas are broken down into carbon dioxide and water aerobically in living cells, to release energy and produce ATP as follows;
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O
During breathing, oxygen is inhaled into the lungs from the atmosphere and carbon dioxide is exhaled from the longs into the atmosphere, such that the carbon dioxide produced during cellular respiration is transported out of the body through the veins respiratory system, from where is passes out through the nose, while oxygen used in cellular respiration comes from breathing in oxygen into the respiratory system
The oxygen is then transported to the cells through by blood in the blood vessels of the circulatory system to the cells, where the cells use the oxygen for cellular respiration to release energy.
