The breakdown of sugar (mainly glucose) is called glycolysis and occurs in the cytoplasm of a cell. The product of glycolysis is pyruvate, which is used to make ATP energy by the Krebs Cycle in the mitochondria.

What are plant organelles that make food from sunlight?
The plant organelles that make food from sunlight are the chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are found in cell of the plant, and contain the pigment chlorophyll, which convert the solar energy into sugar. This sugar is the food for the plant.Organelles called ____________ capture energy from sunlight and use it to produce food for the cell. The answer is chloroplasts. ;)
What are the organelles called where the stored energy of sugar is released?
The cow
Most organisms break down sugar to produce usable energy through the process of what?
Most organisms break down sugar to produce usable energy through the process of cellular respiration.
Most organisms break down sugar to produce usable energy through the process of?
Cellular Respiration, which can be anaerobic or aeorobic. Aeorobic respiration includes glycolysis (in the mitochondrion), the Krebs cycle (also in the mitochondrion), and the electron transport chain on the inter-membrane of the mitochondrion.
What is the mineral salt necessary to produce the high-energy molecule ATP?
Biocarbonate
Organelles that break down sugar to produce energy?
mitochondria
A organelles that break down sugar produce energy?
chloroplasts
What are cell organelles which convert light energy into sugar called?
Chloroplasts in plant cells use the energy in light to produce sugar.
What organelle that break down sugar to produce energy?
The ribosomes
What organells break down sugar to produce energy?
The ribosomes
Where do cells get to produce the energy from?
Animal cells use forms of sugar to make energy using the organelles called mitochondria.
Where inside plants does the body break down sugar to produce energy?
In plant cells, sugar is broken down to produce energy in the mitochondria, just as in animal cells.
Respiration and fermentation both break down sugar to produce energy?
That is true.
What organelles produce protains in the cell?
by adding sugar
When cells breakdown a sugar molecule to produce chemical energy?
A chemical reaction that happens in every cell to break down sugar
When cells breakdown a sugar molecule completely to produce chemical energy (ATP) the cells need?
To break down sugar and produce useful energy, the cells need many things, but most importantly they need ENZYMES.
