Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Why respiration is known as metabolic reaction / metabolism?
A
Because involved molecule movement from outside of cell
B
Because it produce ATP
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Respiration is a set of metabolic reactions and processes which occur in the mitochondria of cells, transferring biochemical energy from molecular substrates into the high energy bonds of ATP and some waste byproducts.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration is used to generate usable ATP energy in order to support many other reactions in the body. ATP is particularly important for energetically unfavorable reactions that would otherwise not occur without an energy input.

Detailed explanation-3: -Metabolic Reactions Involving ATP Adenosine triphosphate is used to transport chemical energy in many important processes, including: aerobic respiration (glycolysis and the citric acid cycle) fermentation. cellular division.

Detailed explanation-4: -Breaking down glucose releases energy, which is captured by the cell in the form of adenosine triphosphate, or ATP. ATP is a small molecule that gives cells a convenient way to briefly store energy. Once it’s made, ATP can be used by other reactions in the cell as an energy source.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
