glucose or anyother carbohydrate
This energy comes from the molecule ATP,which stores energy in a form that cells can use
Glucose.
To break down sugar and produce useful energy, the cells need many things, but most importantly they need ENZYMES.

To break down sugar and produce useful energy, the cells need many things, but most importantly they need ENZYMES.
cells get the energy by the breakdown of a high energy molecule called ATP(Adenosine triphosphate). cells manufacture this ATP themselves in the organelles called mitochondria, which are thus also known as the 'power house of the cell'.
Cells need energy/food to survive
Every organ is made up of many cells and each of these cells need glucose for the provision of energy. Glucose molecules cannot enter the cells however unless they are each joined with a molecule of insulin. This is why the blood glucose is raised with diabetes. No insulin, then no glucose entering the cells. Hope this helps.
First is injestion, respiration is the natural next step.
Because the cells themselves need energy to perform their specific function, and to reproduce!
Mitochondria are the site of aerobic cellular respiration, during which the cell gets 36 ATP for every glucose molecule broken down. Since muscle cells are very active and require a lot of energy, they have more mitochondria than other kinds of cells.
