Cellular respiration is the process by which cells break down glucose (along with oxygen) to release energy (in the form of ATP). Glucose is a key reactant in this metabolic process. Photosynthesis produces glucose (using carbon dioxide, water, and light energy). Mitosis is a type of cell division for growth and repair and does not directly use glucose as a necessary reactant in the same fundamental way as cellular respiration. So, glucose is necessary for cellular respiration.
