∙ 13y agowhen you eat food, your body transforms it to chemical energy. for example, when a grape goes into your stomach, your body turns it to a type of energy. that energy is chemical energy.

Which best describes respiration?
It converts Energy in food into a more usable form
Is matter and energy conserved in a food web?
Matter and total energy are ALWAYS conserved. However, in a food web, you will often consider the USABLE energy; this gets reduced at each step of the food web.
What structure changes food into energy?
Mitochondria
What is a type of organism that undergoes photosynthesis converting energy into a usable form of food for other organisms?
Producers because a producer is a living thing that takes in the Sun's energy and stores it as food.
What energy-transferring molecule in cells provides an immediate source of energy usable to all body cells?
I think you are referring to the mitochondria. They release energy stored in food.
What organelle transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy?
mitochondria are the power house of the cell
What transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy?
the cytoplasm
What cell transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy?
mitochondria are the power house of the cell
What transforms energy in food molecules to energy?
the cytoplasm
Organelle that transforms unusable energy in food molecules into a usable form?
Mitochondria are the organelles responsible for metabolizing food molecules and storing the energy given off by converting ADP to ATP, the universal energy vehicle of living things. ADP (Adenosine DiPhosphate) ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate)

What is food an example of what energy?
Animals get energy from the food they eat. Their body transforms chemical energy in the food into kinetic energy, thermal energy, and other chemical energy
What is respriation in food?
The breaking down of glucose into usable energy.
Which cell converts food into energy that is usable by a cell?
Mitochondria
Which process in the body transforms energy in food into heat?
