Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

Cellular respiration is the mechanism of breakdown of food materials within the cell to release energy and the trapping of this energy for synthesis of ATP. Therefore, the main purpose is to convert energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose to energy that the cell can use.
