Respiration..... when ATP is formed then isn't that cellular respiration. Not really respiration itself????
because respiration means to breathe and ATP isn't formed by just breathing
So is ATP produced by cellular respiration??????

Cellular respiration: cellular process that requires O2 and gives off CO2, most often involves the complete breakdown of glucose to CO2 and H20
C6H1206 + 6O2 > 6CO2 + 6H2O + energy (ATP)
34 molecules of ATP can be produced from one cycle of that reaction.

the way respiration is used as a word in biology is different from how respiration is used in everyday speaking. Don't get confused, cellular respiration is different from breathing, however, the final stage of cellular respiration needs oxygen, which we do get from breathing so they are related.

ATP is energy
or the breaking of the bonds releases energy which is what happens in repiration
repiration is always celluar and nothing to do with breathing

ATP is formed during your glycolysation etc... the time when your biomolecules are becoming something "smaller" for your body to manage. Along the way, there is a lot of ATP formed.

you are correct! (trust me i am in honors biology) cellular respiration takes place in the mitochondria and it is called respiration because it is a constant cyle that keeps repeating itself.
