, RESPIRATION
All living organisms need energy for biological
processes
. Energy is stored in organic molecules
(glucose) The energy in these molecules is
released during respiration
. This is used to
synthesise ATP which is then used wi
reactions such as ATP .
Respiration also energy helping produces heat ,
