Lots of chemical reactions occur here such as respiration.

很多化学反应都发生在这里，如吸作用。

Ye's sweet bamboo shoots have reached a respiration peak two hours after being reaped.

阿亮家大头甜笋，砍下来已经快两个小时了，这时候笋吸作用高峰。

However, in bacteria the plasma membrane has other important roles such as respiration, photosynthesis, and the synthesis of lipids and cell wall components.

除之外，细菌质膜还有其他作用，例如吸作用、光合作用与脂质和细胞壁成分合成。

Those simple sugars then move along to the respirators, another set of microbes that snatch up these simple sugars and burn them as fuel.

这些简单糖类会被输送至进行吸作用细菌，这些微生物会吸收简单糖类，并将之作为生物能源消耗掉。

What makes it such a fast killer is that it binds to proteins in your cells mitochondria, the tiny power plants that keep your cells going, and keeps them from using oxygen, basically asphyxiating the body at a cellular level.

粒线体（mitochondria）中蛋白质结合，于是阻止了氧气正常使用，（阻断吸作用／电子传递练），基本上，可说是你身体在细胞层次窒息了。
