Kaylyn Lewis · Answer 1

Energy stored by respiration is stored via the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP releases this energy when its phosphate bond is broken, producing ADP and a phosphate group as byproducts. ATP is stored within the cell cytoplasm and is abundant in muscle cells due to its high demand in them.
