Four primary regions are the brainstem, the cerebellum, the cerebrum, and the cerebral cortex. Each brain region is responsible for a variety of functions, and injury to any of these regions impairs specific functions.
Cellular respiration is a pathway that organisms use to generate energy. Oxygen is required and is used to break down nutrients, like glucose sugar. The nutrients are broken down to generate ATP (energy) and carbon dioxide and water (waste). Organisms from all kingdoms of life can use cellular respiration including bacteria, archaea, plants, protists, animals, and fungi.
All organisms carry out cellular respiration (except viruses) - it is the basic process which supports life as we know it. Viruses, on the other hand, are not always câ¦onsidered to be living, one of the reasons being that they do NOT carry out cellular respiration.
