Energy used in cellular respiration can originate from carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.

Cellular respiration utilizes energy from carbs, proteins, and lipids to power cellular functions. These macronutrients are broken down into smaller molecules, which are subsequently utilized to release energy during cellular respiration.

The amount and kind of fuel utilized are determined by the cell's energy requirements and the fuel's availability.
