Question

what is the main purpose of cellular respiration? make atp make glucose make oxygen make carbon dioxide

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Cellular respiration is a metabolic process. Its main goal is to break down organic molecules (like glucose). Through a series of reactions (glycolysis, Krebs cycle, electron transport chain), energy is extracted and stored in ATP (adenosine triphosphate). ATP is the energy - currency of the cell, used for various cellular activities. Making glucose is the role of photosynthesis (in plants). Making oxygen is also a by - product of photosynthesis. While carbon dioxide is a waste product of cellular respiration, it is not the main purpose.

Answer:

make ATP
