This report will explain the following: What is cellular respiration? What factors affect the rate of cellular respiration in multicellular organisms? Why do some living cells respire more than others? What is the difference in the rate of cellular respiration of nongerminating and germinating seeds? Does temperature affect the rate of cellular respiration as well? Cellular respiration is the process of oxidizing food molecules into CO2 and H2O. The energy that is released by the reaction is released in the form of ATP, which is used by the cell for later energy consuming reactions. Cellular respiration occurs in two phases which glycolysis and the oxidation of pyruvic acid. Glycolysis is when glucose breaks down to pyruvic acid and the pyruvic
