Answer:

Cellular respiration is what cells do to break up sugars to get energy they can use. Cellular respiration takes in food and uses it to create ATP, a chemical which the cell uses for energy.

Step-by-step explanation:

Usually, this process uses oxygen, and is called aerobic respiration.

Hope it helps!!
