All organisms, even plants, perform cellular respiration because __________.

Select one:
A. All organisms need to eat protein
B. All organisms need to dispose of NADH
C. All organisms need ATP for cell work

All organisms perform cellular respiration to generate ATP, which is essential for their energy needs. This process breaks down glucose to release energy, regardless of whether the organism is making or consuming food. Therefore, option C is correct: All organisms need ATP for cell work.
