What else can I help you with?
What is the breaking down of food molecules without the use of oxygen called?
Anaerobic decomposition or anaerobic digestion.
What is the process that releases energy by breaking down food molecules in the precence of oxygen?
fermentation
Is the process that releases energy by breaking down food molecules in the presence of oxygen?
Respiration
What is the process that release energy by breaking down food molecules in the presence of oxygen?
cellular respiration
What do you call the release of energy from food molecules in the absence of oxygen?
The release of energy from food molecules in the absence of oxygen is called anaerobic respiration. When there is oxygen present it is called aerobic respiration.
An energy releasing process that does not require oxygen is?
Fermentation is an energy releasing process that does not require oxygen. Through fermentation, cells can produce energy without the presence of oxygen by breaking down sugars into simpler molecules and generating ATP.
How do organisms get energy in the absence of oxygen?
Organisms can obtain energy in the absence of oxygen through a process called anaerobic respiration. This involves breaking down molecules like glucose without using oxygen. Different organisms may use different pathways such as fermentation to produce energy without oxygen.
Which organelle breaks down sugar molecules that supply energy to the cell?
mitochondria
How does oxygen help a decomposer?
Decomposers, like fungi and bacteria, use oxygen during the process of breaking down organic matter. Oxygen helps to facilitate the chemical reactions needed to break down complex molecules into simpler compounds, releasing energy that the decomposers can use. Without oxygen, decomposition would be slower or may not occur at all.
Which organelle in a cell uses oxygen when breaking down glucose?
Mitochondria in the cell use oxygen when breaking down glucose.
Breaking large molecules down into smaller molecules?
Enzymes
What is dentrification?
Dentrification is the anaerobic process (making energy without using oxygen) of breaking down nitrates into nitrogen gases.
