Main source of energy in cells is by burning the glucose, fats and excess of amine acids, by a process called biological oxidation. In all these, we get organic molecules of lower and lower energy level and releasing energy step by step, witch is trapped in making by converting ADP into ATP and some part into heat energy. For example, there are almost 20 steps through witch we come down in breaking glucose into final products of oxidation. (C O 2 and H 2 O. )

∙ 9y agoPlants convert energy in a process known as photosynthesis.
This occurs in organelles called chloroplasts, which contain chlorophyll.
The absorption of light by chlorophyll allows for the creation of biochemical fuel and ATP by the plant cells.

What process do all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of?
Cellular respiration is the process by which all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of glucose.
What cellular process releases energy from food?
oxidation
What process provides the cells with energy?
cellular respiration
What is the process by which the chemical energy of food molecules is released?
The first step of the process is the digestion.
How is ATP important to cellular metabolism?
ATP [Adenosine Triphosphate ] is a energy giving universal molecule . It give energy to almost every biological process like Krebs cycle , photosynthesis ,Respiration etc .
Which process converts oxygen and food into cellular energy?
That process is called as biological oxidation. Glucose is the best example of biological oxidation. Here the end products are same. They are water and carbon bi oxide. In the biological oxidation the energy is released in step wise fashion in multiple steps. In the chemical oxidation the energy is released in single step. The amount of energy is exactly same in both the processes. Chemical oxidation is like jumping from the top of the building. Biological oxidation is like coming down via steps. You come down at the same place. But you may end up in braking your legs in the process of jumping down. In biological oxidation, you do not end up in braking your legs.
If photosynthesis is the process that deposits energy in a savings account then what is cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is the process that "withdraws" the energy.
The cellular process of breaking down foods to release energy?
Cellular respiration is the specific cellular process that breaks down food to make energy. Catabolism is the general process that breaks molecules down to release energy.
Energy from glucose is released in the process of?
Mitochondria gets energy from glucose through the process of cellular respiration.
What is the cellular process that releases energy from organic compounds?
cellular respiration
If photosynthesis is the process that deposits in a savings account then what is cellular respiration?
Cellular respiration is the process that "withdraws" the energy.
Which process converts solar energy into chemical energy?
Photosynthesis is the cellular process that converts solar energy into chemical energy.
The transfer of energy from nutrients to ATP is accomplished most directly by the process of?
cellular respiration
What process do all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of?
Cellular respiration is the process by which all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of glucose.
What organelle coverts light energy in chemical energy?
The organelle is the chloroplast.
What process do cell release energy?
cellular respiration
What does the process of cellular respiration release energy from?
the mitochondria
