In plant cells, sugar is broken down to produce energy in the mitochondria, just as in animal cells.
The mitochondria is the organelle responsible for breaking down glucose in cellular respiration to produce energy in the form of ATP.
Blood sugar is broken down in muscle fibres to produce mechanical power, and in cells to produce heat.
