Cells power plants break down food molecules to make ATP?
mitochondria
A chemical process where mitochondria break down food molecules to produce ATP?
Respiration I believe.
Which structures break down food and release energy?
Mitochondria break down food and release energy.
The cells power plants break down food molecules to make ATP?
Actually, Carbohydrates, lipid and proteins can be used to be broken down into ATP. However, Carbohyrates are most commonly used because it yeilds more molecules of ATP.
What organelle breaks down food molecules to power cellular activities?
Mitochondria.

Which structures break down food and release energy?
Mitochondria break down food and release energy.
Which structures break down food and energy?
Mitochondria break down food and release energy.
The cells power plants break down food molecules to make ATP?
Actually, Carbohydrates, lipid and proteins can be used to be broken down into ATP. However, Carbohyrates are most commonly used because it yeilds more molecules of ATP.
A cell organelle that breaks down food molecules and releases energy?
The mitochondria releases energy from food molecules. This is where all things are broken down and turned into energy for the cell.
What in the cell breaks down the food molecules to make ATP?
mitochondria
What are the cell's power plants that break down food?
Mitochondria
What organelle breaks down food molecules to power cellular activities?
Mitochondria.
Which organelle breaks down food into molecules the cell can use for energy?
mitochondria
Can mitochondria make their own food?
No,they cannot make food.They break down food.
When living cells break down food molecules energy is?
When living cells break down food molecules energy is released and used to form ATP.
