when glucose is released from glycogen, the sugar molecule can be used by the cell to produce 38 ATP molecules(2 from glycolysis, 2 from the Krebs cycle, and about 34 from the electron transport system). via catabolism.

∙ 14y agoThe process by which glucose is broken down in animal cells to pyruvate and energy is called glycolysis. The energy released in the conversion allows cells to make adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), which can transport the energy anywhere it is needed. Enzymes then break down the ATP or NADH to provide energy to specific parts of the cell. The whole process involves about ten different chemical reactions. In the first half of the reactions, energy is used, but by the end of the process, the lost energy is replaced and doubled.

∙ 12y agoChloroplasts are organelles that allow plants to make sugars through a process called Photosynthesis. This process is complex, but can be summarized by the typical reaction equation:
6CO2 + 6H2O -> C6H12O6 + 6O2.

What are cell organelles which convert light energy into sugar called?
Chloroplasts in plant cells use the energy in light to produce sugar.
Which characteristic of body cells require large amounts of energy?
Cellular Respiration. Your cells need energy in the form of glucose to produce ATP (usable energy)
What do your cells or organs use carbohydrates for?
to produce energy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What Occurs when cells use oxygen to produce energy from food.?
cellular respiration
Process by which cells use 02 to produce energy from food?
The answer is photosynthesis I think.
Where do cells get to produce the energy from?
Animal cells use forms of sugar to make energy using the organelles called mitochondria.
What are cell organelles which convert light energy into sugar called?
Chloroplasts in plant cells use the energy in light to produce sugar.
Which characteristic of body cells require large amounts of energy?
Cellular Respiration. Your cells need energy in the form of glucose to produce ATP (usable energy)
What is the process by which cells harvest energy from cells?
cellular respiration
What does a cell produce or give off when it makes energy?
Cells can't MAKE energy, they can only convert it from one form to another. Plant cells use sunlight to convert H2O and CO2 into sugar and oxygen. Animal cells convert sugar and oxygen into CO2 and H2O.
What do your cells or organs use carbohydrates for?
to produce energy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Living cells contain sugar that they use for fuel this sugar contains?
Living cells contain sugar that they use for fuel. This sugar contains glucose which is the primary molecule that is converted to produce ATP.
In cellular respiration what do cells use to produce energy from food?
Oxygen
What are examples of chemical energy transformed into muscular energy?
It is the sugar or fat in your body that your muscle cells use to make energy. Thus, it depends ultimately on your sugar.
What use ATP to produce sugar?
The energy in glucose (Cellular respiration) is used to produce ATP
What is produced when cells use oxygen to release energy from sugar?
they form children
What Occurs when cells use oxygen to produce energy from food.?
cellular respiration
