  • Carbon Dioxide: The Byproduct of Cellular Respiration - A Simple Explanation
    The main gas produced during respiration is carbon dioxide (CO2).

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Cellular Respiration: This is the process where cells break down glucose (sugar) to release energy in the form of ATP. This process requires oxygen and produces carbon dioxide as a waste product.

    * Breathing: We breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. This is how our bodies get rid of the carbon dioxide produced during respiration.
