What happens during the process of cellular respiratoin

The cellular respiration equation is:

glucose + oxygen—> ATP + carbon dioxide + water

In this process, organisms like animals and plants turn glucose from food into useable energy called ATP.

This process begins in the cytoplasm, and terminates in the mitochondria. It has three main steps: glycolysis, Kreb’s cycle and the electron transport chain

The ATP produced is used to grow, repair, and perform cellular functions. Carbon dioxide and water are waste products, and are not used.

smooth muscle is composed of involuntary muscles found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, and blood vessels. those muscles push materials like food or blood through organs. unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle can never be under your control.
