Transcript text: The function of cellular respiration is to produce
Solution
The function of cellular respiration is to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
Cellular respiration is a metabolic process that converts biochemical energy from nutrients into ATP, and then releases waste products. The process involves several stages, including glycolysis, the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), and oxidative phosphorylation via the electron transport chain. ATP is the primary energy currency of the cell, used to power various cellular activities and processes.
