oxygen
Which of these is required for the body's production of energy?

What gas is needed for the chemical breakdown of food to release energy?
...essential for the release of energy the major food (nutrients.) -darlene de la rosa2992
What are the similarities between respiration and burning?
they are both used to release energy out of oxygen
Does oxygen produce energy under combustion?
Oxygen can react with other elements and release energy.
What does not require oxygen to release energy?
respiration
Does mitochondria release or store energy?
It release energy. It releases using Glucose (C6H12O6) and Oxygen (O2).Mitochondria release energy in glucose. Then it stores this energy in ATP
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.
