respiration

Essential life process where oxygen reacts with glucose from the food that you eat to provide your body with energy. The two by-products of this process are carbon dioxide, which is exhaled along with the rest of the harmless gases that entered your lungs but did not diffuse into your blood, and water.

Not to be confused with breathing, which is how the oxygen enters the body.

If you cannot breathe, oxygen cannot enter your lungs and therefore cannot diffuse into your blood. With no oxygen your cells cannot respire and will therefore die.

Respiration:

Oxygen + Glucose -> Energy + Carbon Dioxide + Water

jock strap respiration

The act of after a physical sporting event (football, lacrosse, etc.) taking your protective cup out of its jock strap and creeping up behind an unsuspecting teammate and placing it forcefully over their nasal passages and mouth. Immediatly after doing so, the victim is tackled to the ground and the cup will be held on for as long as possible until the victim fights himself off from the grapple.

Post attack, the victim is especially angry and considered extremely dangerous. Keep distance and seek shelter.

Maximum effect achieved on a hot, humid day after a long practice, in which the cup will reek of a putrid smell and be oddly moist.

Shortly called "JSR" or more commonly "The Cupface."

Paco gave Joe the worst jock strap respiration move I've ever seen in my life after lax let out yesterday.

Cellular Respiration

Cellular respiration is the set of the metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and then release waste products.

An example of cellular respiration is taking sugar(Glucose) and breaking it down to water and carbon dioxide and in the process making ATP.

Cell Respiration

A biological process in which your body makes a shitload of ATP in the Mitochondria.

Kid 1: OMG! I got a 103 on my Cell Respiration test! :D

Kid 2: I got a 44. Oh well, it could've been worse...

When you get beat up so bad that you have to breath out of your asshole.

That kid looks really fucked up. He is probably using anal respiration right now.
