The oxidative breakdown of respiratory substrates with the help of atmospheric

O_{2}

is known as aerobic respiration. It involves complete breakdown of substrates into

C O_{2}

and water, releasing energy. For example, the simple chemical equation for aerobic breakdown of glucose is

C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} + 6 O_{2} \to 6 C O_{2} + 6 H_{2} O + 2870 k J /686 K C a l

While during photosynthesis chlorophyll a gets oxidised to transfer molecules to the electron transport chain.
