Based on the context you've provided regarding the relationship between temperature and cellular respiration:

  1. When temperature increases, the rate at which glucose is used by cells is expected to increase.
  2. When temperature decreases, the rate of ATP production by cells is expected to decrease.

This reflects the general trend observed in enzymatic reactions, including those involved in cellular respiration, where increased temperatures typically enhance reaction rates, up to a point, while decreased temperatures hinder those reactions.
