What is the form of energy stored in food called?
The form of energy stored in food is called chemical energy. This energy is released when the bonds in food molecules are broken down during digestion.
What do you call the release of energy from food molecules in the absence of oxygen?
The release of energy from food molecules in the absence of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. When there is oxygen present it is called aerobic respiration.
The release of energy from food molecules in the abscence of oxygen is called?
fermentation
What is the name of the energy released from food in a chemical reaction called?
Respiration is the series of chemical reactions used to release energy stored in food molecules. it is also the process by which producers and consumers release stored energy from food molecules.
The process by which organisms decompose food and synthesize energy and tissue is?
The process by which organisms break down macro molecules is called catabolism. Synthesizing small molecules and conserving energy is called anabolism. Anabolism and catabolism together is called metabolism.
What is the energy located in the bonds of food molecules?
The location of energy release from food molecules is in the mitochondria of the cell. The process in which energy is released from food molecules is known as cellular respiration.
What transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy?
The process that transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy is called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose molecules in food are broken down in cells to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the form of energy that cells can readily use to power their functions.
The molecules that make up food contain energy how does the human body get energy from food molecules?
By breaking chemical bonds in the molecules
The molecules that make up food contain energy. how does the human body get energy from the food molecules?
by breaking chemical bonds in the molecules
What cell transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy?
mitochondria are the power house of the cell
What are two chemical reactions that are necessary to give cell energy?
This energy is derived from the chemical bond energy in food molecules, which thereby serve as fuel for cells. The first step is the enzymatic breakdown of food molecules in digestion, and the second step that converts glucose molecules is called glycolysis.
Which organelle breaks down food into molecules the cell can use for energy?
The organelle responsible for breaking down food into molecules that the cell can use for energy is the mitochondria. Through a process called cellular respiration, mitochondria convert glucose and other nutrients into a form of energy called ATP.
