1. 1.1Medicine count noun A single breath.

  Temporal relationships between organic carbon production and respiration are not well understood in coral reef ecosystems.
  Root respiration provides metabolic energy for growth and maintenance of root biomass and for ion transport.
  First, and most obvious, there is the role of respiration in energy metabolism.
  Lipids provide material for respiration and energy production, and serve as vitamins, hormones and structural components of biological membranes.
