Describe the two stages of aerobic cellular respiration. be sure to explain where in the cell each stage occurs.

The first stage of cellular respiration occurs in the cytoplasm. This is where glucose is broken down into smaller molecules. A small amount of energy is also released. The second stage occurs in the mitochondria. This is where the small molecules combine with oxygen to produce water, carbon dioxide, and a large amount of energy.
