Respiration is the process by which an organism takes in oxygen and releases carbon dioxide in order to produce energy through the metabolism of nutrients. In animals, this process occurs in the lungs or gills, while in plants it occurs in the leaves through tiny openings called stomata. Respiration is essential for the survival and growth of living organisms.
