The process by which cells break down simple food molecules to release energy they contain?
respirstion
What is a organism that break down molecules to generate energy?
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms break down molecules to produce energy.
Why do organisms need to carry out the process of resperation?
because every living thing needs to do this to survive
Food molecules are broken down to release energy by the?
The process of cellular respiration breaks down food molecules to release stored energy. When cells break down food molecules energy is temporarily stored in ATP molecules.
The process by which cells break down molecules to relase energy without using oxygen?
anaerobic respiration
When cells has more energy available how can it store small amounts of that energy?
Cells break down the higher-energy molecules and store the energy that is released in molecules of ATP. This is called cellular respiration.
What can ATP be described as?
The energy carrying molecules in living cells.
What are the primary energy-storage molecules in the living cells?
mitochondria
What do Cells use to break down glucose and store its energy in molecules of ATP?
oxygen :)
What is the process by which cells break down sugar molecules and releases energy?
I believe that is fermentation.
How does food provide a source of energy of living things?
The breakdown of food molecules releases energy to cells.
How does food provide a source of energy for living things?
The breakdown of food molecules releases energy to cells.

Where does the energy go when living cells break down?
decomposers feed off it.
