  • what is the main purpose of aerobic cellular respiration ?

    to produce lots of ATP or energy to the cell.

  • what does the term aerobic imply in the context of cellular respiration?

    process requires the presence of oxygen gas (02)

  • where do most stages of aerobic cellular respiration occur within the cell.

    inside the mitochondria of the cell

  • what are the end products of aerobic cellular respiration?
