Explanation:

Cellular respiration is a biological process. All living organisms perform it. Reactants are glucose and oxygen, products are carbon - dioxide, water and energy. ATP stands for Adenosine Tri - Phosphate. It's used for energy in the cell. When energy is released, ATP turns into ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate). ADP has one less phosphate group than ATP. Aerobic respiration requires oxygen, makes about 36 - 38 ATP per glucose molecule, mostly occurs in mitochondria. Its three steps are glycolysis (breaks glucose into pyruvate), the Krebs cycle (produces electron carriers), and the electron transport chain (generates ATP).

Answer:

Name: Cellular Respiration
Function: To convert energy stored in nutrients into ATP
Types of organisms that perform cellular respiration: All living organisms
Reactants (Words): Glucose + Oxygen
Products (Words): Carbon - dioxide + Water + Energy
Reactants (Symbols): $C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2$
Products (Symbols): $6CO_2 + 6H_2O+energy$
Station 1:

1. Adenosine Tri - Phosphate
2. Energy source for cell processes
3. (Drawing cannot be provided in text, but energy is stored in the high - energy phosphate bonds)
4. ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate)
5. ATP has three phosphate groups, ADP has two.

Station 2:

1. Oxygen
2. About 36 - 38 ATP
3. Mitochondria

4.
a. Glycolysis: Glucose is broken down into two pyruvate molecules, producing some ATP and NADH.
b. The Krebs cycle: Pyruvate is further broken down, generating more NADH, FADH2 and some ATP, and releasing carbon - dioxide.
c. Electron transport chain: NADH and FADH2 donate electrons, which are used to pump protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane, creating a proton gradient that drives ATP synthesis.

1. "Aerobic needs oxygen, makes lots of ATP in mitochondria, three - step process" (example hint)
