What cell caputres energy and producess food?
All cells "capture" energy, and are able to convert that energy into food. Plant Cells (Prokaryotes) capture the energy emitted from the sun and convert that into energy so they can survive (Photosynthesis).
What converts fuel particles into useable energy in a cell?
The mitochondria in a cell convert food cells into energy. The cell uses that energy to kickstart necessary reactions.
Which organelle converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are convenient for the cell to use?
Mitochondria are organelles that convert the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell's use.
What is the primary function of a mitocondria?
In general, mitochondria are responsible for the energy production in cells and specify the formation of some key components of the energy-producing system. Mitochondria provides about 90% of the energy that cells, and thus tissues, organs and the body as a whole needs to function. The primary function of mitochondria is to convert food into energy. They convert the food we eat into basic chemicals that the cell can use. Hence, they are known as the cells powerhouse
Why do animal cells cannot make their own organic food?
dont no
Where are places where cells convert light energy into food?
Chloroplasts
What places where cells convert energy light into food?
Chloroplasts
Places where cells convert light energy into food?
yall suppose to have noe the answer i am asking yall stupid self ...

What is the process of cells using oxygen to convert food into energy?
photosynthesis
Why is food a source of energy for the body?
Food is broken down into particles which go into your mitochondria (in your cells), which convert the particles into energy.
Does a mitochondrion generates power for your cells by helping convert food to energy your cell can use?
yes
Why is food a source of energy?
Food energy is energy obtained from food through cellular respiration, which is the set of the metabolic reactions and processes that take place in the cells of organisms to convert biochemical energy from nutrients into adenosine triphosphate.
What is food for cells?
plant get their food from the sunlight, and use the chloroplast to convert it into energy they can use as food. animals get it by eating organisms lower on the food chain then them, and get energy (but only about 10%) from that.
What converts fuel particles into useable energy in a cell?
The mitochondria in a cell convert food cells into energy. The cell uses that energy to kickstart necessary reactions.
Which organelle converts the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are convenient for the cell to use?
Mitochondria are organelles that convert the chemical energy stored in food into compounds that are more convenient for the cell's use.
How do cells take in nutrients and convert it into energy?
the mithocondria turns nutrients/food energy
