What do both plant and animal cells break down to get energy?

Both plant and animal cells break down glucose (C6H12O6) in order to create adenosine triphosphate, or ATP, which provides energy for the cell. Plant cells are able to manufacture glucose through photosynthesis, but animal cells must acquire the glucose by ingesting it from another source. Both types of cells undergo cellular respiration, which is the process by which the ATP is produced out of glucose.
