Detailed Solution

    An exothermic reaction is the process of respiration.
"An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which energy is released in the form of light or heat." Respiration is an exothermic process because heat is produced during the process, which raises the temperature of the surrounding environment. During the process, the food's carbon dioxide disintegrates to produce glucose. In our cells, this glucose and oxygen interact to produce significant energy.
