While food passes through your digestive system, the body soaks up the nutrients it needs from the food. Those nutrients are then carried throughout the blood by cells to organs that need them.

A cell gets energy through cell metabolism. Metabolism involves anabolism and catabolism. Metabolism occurs in the cell cytosol as well as in mitochondria. Energy is released in packages.This is through ATP,cells' energy currency.Hydrolysis of ATP involves breakdown of bonds,and bond breakdown releases energy.
