The process used by to release energy depends on the cell. There are processesthroughout life that can metabolise just about anything containing chemical energy. The plants can also gather energy from the sun and other organisms can take energy from volcanic vents at the bottom of the ocean. In animals there are also many processes that metabolise things like protein, fat and carbohydrates One common process humans use for metabolising carbohydrates, glucose particularly is called glycolysis. This involves 10 steps, each step giving energy in the form of ATP or Adenosine Tri Phosphate. The ATP is then used by enzymes to do the actual work. For the ten steps of this process, see the related links below.

When oxygen is carried to cells it used to release what?
Energy
How the human body obtains energy from food?
The process of getting energy from food molecules occurs in the mitochondria of cells (human or otherwise). Energy is stored within the numerous bonds of each food molecule. By adding activation energy and separating the atoms from each other, a chemical process starts and the energy is released and immediately used or stored as fat.
What is the number of approximate days of a moon cycle?
What is the process stars used to release energy
What is an organic compound that provides energy to cells stores energy and forms body structures?
sex-is an orgnic compund that resvers energy
Which is the primary molecule used by cells to capture energy and later release it during chemical reactions?
adenosine triphosphate, ATP
How your cells get energy by breathing?
Body cells get energy by breathing through cellular respiration. Respiration is the process by which the oxygen we breathe in is used to oxidize food, leading to energy release.
What is the process used by cells to get energy?
Photosynthesis
What is used by cells to store and release energy?
Oxygen is used by the mitochondria for a process called oxidative phosphorylation to generate energy for the cell, producing ATP, or adenosine triphosphate.
The substance that is used in cells to release energy?
Glucose
When oxygen is carried to cells it used to release what?
Energy
What does the delivery of oxygen to cells to do?
Oxygen is used by cells for the process of respiration. Respiration is the release of energy from food. When this happens using oxygen it is called aerobic respiration: glucose + oxygen ----> water + carbon dioxide + ENERGY IRON
The release of insulin from pancreatic cells occurs by?
Exocytosis is the process used to release insulin from pancreatic cells into the bloodstream.
When the oxygen is carried to cells it is used to relese what?
cells use the oxygen to release chemical energy.
What does the delivery of oxygen allow cells to do?
Oxygen is used by cells for the process of respiration. Respiration is the release of energy from food. When this happens using oxygen it is called aerobic respiration: glucose + oxygen ----> water + carbon dioxide + ENERGY IRON
Substance used in cells to release energy from?
Glucose and other monosaccharides.
What isthe substance that is used in all cells to release energy from?
Glucose
What is the name of the process by which all organisms break down energy-containing molecules within their tissues to release energy?
The process organisms use to break down food is called metabolism. ATP, the universal energy currency of cells, is used to transfer chemical energy between different chemical reactions.
