process converting glucose and oxygen into energy within cells

Cellular respiration is the process by which cells convert glucose and oxygen into energy, carbon dioxide, and water. This energy, stored in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), is essential for powering various cellular activities. The process primarily occurs in the mitochondria and involves three main stages: glycolysis, the citric acid cycle (Krebs cycle), and the electron transport chain.
