Cellular respiration is the process by which organic sugars are broken down to produce energy. It plays a vital rolein the carbon cycle because it releasescarbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This means that cellular respirationcan be thought of as the opposite ofcarbon fixation in the carbon cycle.
