Summary: ATP and respiration is talked about, and how it affects the brain. It also talks about some of the defects that it can cause on the body. Some of the mitochondrial defects have been
found in patients diagnosed with neurodegenerative diseases.

Questions: What is the chemical equation for cellular respiration? C6H12O6+ 6O2+6H2O+energy
What organelles are involved in this process? mitochondria
List three things you learned from this article in your own words. 1. I learned how the body works with cellular respiration. 2. I learned how this type of respiration affects the body. 3. I learned that it can cause a genetic disease if the trait is found in your genes.
What impact would the absence of this process have on the biosphere? More and more humans could start to get the disease genetically.
