• What is cellular respiration?

Cellular respiration is the process an organism and its cells go through to create ATP or energy.

• How is cellular respiration related to what you measured in the cricket lab?

In the cricket lab, we measure the metabolic rate of crickets when they were exposed to various temperatures. The metabolic rate can be measured by CO2 production which is dependent on the organisms respiration rate. Measuring the CO2 production indicates the rate of respiration.
