What is the name of the process that happens in your cells to obtain energy from food and oxygen?
respiration
How plant and animal cells obtain and release energy?
Plants get their energy from the sun. They use the light from the sun in a process called photosynthesis. Animals get their energy from the consumption of food.
What do human cells obtain from the food they eat?
Energy
What is the name of the process that happens in your cells at normal temperatures to obtain energy from food and oxygen?
cellular respiration. occures in the mitochondria of cell.
What is the most common food substance from which cells obtain energy?
glucose
What is the process by which cells get energy from food without using oxygen?
The process is fermentation.
The process by which cells harvest energy from food?
it is cellular respiration
Which process is not required for an animal to obtain energy from food?
Animals obtain energy from the processes of ingestion, digestion, and secretion. Excretion of wastes is not required.
What is the process in which plant cells use oxygen to get energy from food?
photosynthesis
What is the process of cells using oxygen to convert food into energy?
photosynthesis
What metabolic process in cells use oxygen and release carbon dioxide to obtain energy from food?
Aerobic Respiration. Grow Mechanical What metabolic process in cells use oxygen and release carbon dioxide to obtain energy from food? The metabolic process that uses oxygen and releases carbon dioxide to obtain energy from food is called aerobic respiration. This process occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells and involves the breakdown of glucose and other organic molecules to generate ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the main source of energy for cellular processes. During aerobic respiration, glucose is oxidized through a series of enzymatic reactions, and the energy released is used to generate ATP. The byproducts of this process are carbon dioxide and water. The equation for aerobic respiration is: Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + ATP Overall, aerobic respiration is a highly efficient way for cells to obtain energy from food, producing a large amount of ATP compared to other metabolic processes.
Why do cells need to obtain energy from food?
Plant cells don't - only the parasitic types (like animals ... such as us) do.
