What is a Mitochondrias?
The mitochondria's job is to provide energy for cells. It produces ATP adenosine triphosphate which is used by the cells.
Why do cells nee food?
For cellular respiration. Food is full of glucose (sugar) and when it combines with oxygen it produces energy. Here is the equation: oxygen + glucose --> carbon dioxide + water + energy
What traps the light energy for a plant to use in making its food?
chlorophyll
What organ In the plants traps sunlight energy to make food?
Leaf
What contains chlorophyll and is a green pigment that traps energy from sunlight and gives plants their green color?
Chlorophyll is contained in chloroplasts, which are specialized organelles found in plant cells. This green pigment is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight into energy.
When food is broken down where is the energy stored?
When food is broken down the stored energy is in your cells. When the energy is needed, the cells release the energy.
How do cells get the energy to do their daily activities?
Plant cells synthesize their food by photosynthesis. Animal cells can not do like plants, so it needs to be taken.Digestion of food molecules will help the cells to make energy(ATP).
What supplies food to the cells?
The Mitochondria of the cell produces the energy the cell needs or if you are in a plant you must use the chloroplasts to go through photosynthesis the energy that creates then goes to the mitochondria to be processed.
Does ATP source energy?
Food is the ultimate source of ATP, or adenosine triphosphate. Once ATP is formed, it is used as the main energy source of cells.
What organelle makes food?
I think you mean plant cells right? Well the green organelles in plant cells are called chloroplast, and they are green because the chloroplast has a green photosynthetic pigment called chlorophyll.
What is the function themitochondria?
Mitochondria is the rod-shaped structure that found in the cytoplasm. It is also known as "Power houses" as it produces most of the cells' energy. It produces the energy through the oxidation of the food substances such as glucose. Moreover, it also is a site of the cellular respiration.
What is food used as in your body?
food gives out nutrients which inturn produces energy. food is a supplement to the body's energy
