shape and structure.
What is the purpose of cellular respiration?
✔✔ Cellular respiration converts glucose and oxygen into ATP, carbon dioxide, and water,
providing energy for cellular processes.
How do smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum differ in function?
✔✔ Rough ER is involved in protein synthesis and has ribosomes on its surface, while smooth
ER is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification and lacks ribosomes.
