What is Cellular Respiration?

Cellular respiration is defined as ” the process which takes place within the cells. The food is broken down in the cell by oxidation and thus energy is released for various activities of life.

Properties of cellular Respiration:

It is the process that takes place in the cells of living organisms.
It is the process that is related to the oxidation of food inside a cell.
It is the final stage of respiration.
It is the process in which oxygen is consumed in breaking down food.

What is Gaseous Exchange?

It is a two-step process of taking in oxygen and giving out Carbon dioxide.

Properties of Gaseous Exchange:

It is the process that takes place in the organs of the respiratory system.
It is the process that is related to the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide between the body and the environment.
It is the initial stage of respiration.
It is the process in which oxygen gas is received from the environment.
