Respiration meaning gas exchange is the process in which an organism absorbs from the environment gases necessary for its cellular metabolism and expels gases that are products of this metabolism. Cellular respiration (aerobic or anaerobic) is the chemical reaction in which organic molecules are degraded to make ATP molecules, the main energy source for the metabolism.
Gas exchange is fundamental for cellular respiration since the supplying of some reagents (oxygen, in aerobic cellular respiration) and the expelling of some products (e.g., carbon dioxide) of this chemical reaction depends on gas exchange.
