Definition of Prose. Prose is a communicative style that sounds natural and uses grammatical structure. Prose is the opposite of verse, or poetry, which employs a rhythmic structure that does not mimic ordinary speech.
Respiration. Respiration is a biochemical process that converts food into energy with oxygen, and it takes place inside the cells of all living beings. In respiration, the biochemical energy of food is converted into adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and carbon dioxide using oxygen.
Remember that respiration is not the same as breathing, so take care-plants do not breathe. As we can see from the word equations respiration and photosynthesis are opposites. Respiration uses oxygen and produces carbon dioxide. Photosynthesis uses carbon dioxide and produces oxygen.
