All insects are aerobic organisms -- they must obtain oxygen (O2) from their environment in order to survive. They use the same metabolic reactions as other animals (glycolysis, Kreb's cycle, and the electron transport system) to convert nutrients (e.g. sugars) into the chemical bond energy of ATP. During the final ste... |
