The process of breaking down food to create energy is called digestion. Digestion is necessary for other biological processes, such as movement and growth, to occur.
Not sure if that person's answer would answer your question but it sure as heck didn't answer mine... so I looked it up. The answer you might be looking for is binary fission. Not 100% sure though so don't be mad if i'm wrong. -_-
The breaking down of food into energy starts with the digestion of food in the stomach. The starch and sugar turn into glucose and it is used up by the body as energy.Ê
Digesting food is the process of breaking down food to get the nutrients and energy. Digestion starts in the mouth.

cellular respiration
In the body, large food molecules (eg. carbohydrates, proteins) are broken down by enzymes to form simpler substances. for example, carbohydrase enzymes break carbohydrates down into simple sugars such as glucose. glucose is then used in the process of cellular respiration, within the mitochondria. this process releases energy.
Breaking down of macromolecules into small particles is called a catabolic process. In any catabolic process there is a release of energy. Anabolic reaction combines small particles into a macro molecule and energy is conserved in such a process.
The mitochondria releases energy from food molecules. This is where all things are broken down and turned into energy for the cell.
"digestive"
The process of breaking down food to release energy is called "Digestion".

Digestion breaks down food into energy.
The digestive system has primary responsibility for breaking down food.
The breaking down of glucose into usable energy.

The process of breaking down food so we can absorb it is called digestion. Releasing the energy by breaking it down further in our cells is respiration.
