The following equation shows how animals (heterotrophs) use glucose to create energy for the cell, a process called CELLULAR RESPIRATION, which occurs in the mitochondria. C6H1206 + 602 = 6CO2 + 6H2O + ENERGY (ATP)

What organelle does cellular respiration in the cell?

Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of the cell.

Explanation:

Cellular respiration is what cells do to break up sugars to get energy they can use. Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create ATP, a chemical which the cell uses for energy. They also create glucose, which is a simple sugar with the molecular formula C₆H₁₂O₆. Glucose is the most abundant monosaccharide, a subcategory of carbohydrates.

This all happens in the Mitochondria, or the "Powerhouse of the Cell".
