What does the mitochondria do in the animal cell?
it brake's down food and turns it into energy
What the mitochondria do in a cell?
It is the power house of the cell. It provides energy for the cell when it needs to move or make other organelles. it turns food into energy
How do cells take in nutrients and convert it into energy?
the mithocondria turns nutrients/food energy
Which organelle turns food into the type of energy that cells can use?
Mitochondria are the organelles responsible for converting food molecules into ATP, the energy currency of cells through a process called cellular respiration. This energy is used by the cell to power various functions and processes.
What does the mitochondria do in kid words?
the mitochondria produces the power or energy needed by burning food produced in the cell. (something to help you remember it: it's the powerhouse of the cell!)
Which is the powerhouse of cell and why is it called so?
The power house of the cell is the Mitochondria (Mitochondrion). It is called this because it takes broken down food (from the lysosomes) and turns them into ATP, which is energy that the cell can use.
What is cell substances?
all of the cell's organelles are nucleus=the brain of the cell,mitochondrion=breaks down food & turns it into energy,cell membrane=a layer outside of a cell,vacuole=stores water, food, & wastes, cytoplasm=a gel like substance that supports all of the organelles
What cell converts energy into food for the cell?
A chlorenchymatous cell (one containing chlorophyll) converts energy into food for the cell.
What turns into energy after you eat it?
The chemical energy of food provides energy to us. When food is burnt, energy is released.
What turns energy from sunlight into food?
photosynthisis
What process does the digestive system use to turn food into energy?
Food isn't transformed into energy directly in the digestive system, except in its individual cells. However, the digestive system turns food into usable nutrients, which each cell may then use for energy, among other processes.
