Aerobic respiration is respiration using
oxygen.
It's the most
efficient
way to transfer energy from
glucose
and it occurs all the time in plants and animals.
Most of the reactions in aerobic respiration happen inside the
mitochondria.
The equation for aerobic respiration is:
Glucose
+
Oxygen
->
Carbon dioxide
+
Water
C6H12O6 + 6O2 -> 6CO2 + 6H2O
