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.
exists and is an alternate of . Virtually all oxygen using organisms have cellular respiration going on. C.R. is the breakdown of glucose using oxygen to release energy as ATP - so anything - plants, animals, single celled organisms - that take in oxygen and glucose are going to do CR. Organisms that can't tolerate oxygen or run out of oxygen (like your muscles during a strenuous workout) will do fermentation instead.
