B Cellular Respiration

Mitochondria is known as the power house of the cell which means its main function is energy production so glucose present in the body is broken down by the process of cellular respiration in which the glucose is converted into carbon dioxide and water and energy is released in the form of ATP(Adenosine tri phosphate). This process takes place in the presence of oxygen called as aerobic respiration.
