Detailed explanation-3: -Respiration is important because it produces energy that is necessary for the functioning of the body. It provides oxygen to the cells and expels toxic carbon dioxide. When oxygen reaches the cells, this oxygen breakdown glucose which is present in digested food, and releases energy.

Detailed explanation-4: -The cells in our bodies need oxygen to stay alive. Carbon dioxide is made in our bodies as cells do their jobs. The lungs and respiratory system allow oxygen in the air to be taken into the body, while also letting the body get rid of carbon dioxide in the air breathed out.
