Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The process of cellular respiration
A
is performed only by organisms that are incapable of photosynthesis
B
is performed by autotrophs and heterotrophs
C
occurs before plants are able to carry out photosynthesis
D
occurs only in animals
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration occurs in both autotrophic and heterotrophic organisms, where energy becomes available to the organism most commonly through the conversion of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to adenosine triphosphate (ATP). There are two main types of cellular respiration-aerobic respiration and anaerobic respiration.

Detailed explanation-2: -Explain why both autotrophs and heterotrophs must undergo cellular respiration. Both have cells that need to produce energy for cellular function.

Detailed explanation-3: -In order to unlock this energy, cells in heterotrophs must break down the glucose molecules. The process of cellular respiration happens within cells and uses glucose molecules and oxygen to produce carbon dioxide, water and the release of chemical energy molecules known as ATP.
