What is the process by which an organism obtains the energy it needs releasing the chemical energy in nutrients?

The process is respiration (cellular respiration). It breaks down the compounds called carbohydrates to release the energy stored there (which almost always originally came from photosynthesis).

What is the process by which chemical reactions occur that break down food molecules into energy to be used by the organism?

Breaking down of macromolecules into small particles is called a catabolic process. In any catabolic process there is a release of energy. Anabolic reaction combines small particles into a macro molecule and energy is conserved in such a process.

How does rot and decomposition release nutrients that nourish life?

Sounds like a homework question. Rot and decomposition is the digestion of living or previously living material by bacteria, and other microbial, sometimes parasitic organisms. Upon digestion the organism takes only what it needs - relevant nutrients and simple energy sources. The rest of the material that comes out of the digestive process in these organism is excreted in a broken down state (e.g. nitrogen compounds). These excreted or waste products are nutrients that help other organisms - plants - to use them to keep growing. Plants in turn are eaten by other organisms and the nutrients flow back up the food chain. Though the initial release of required nutrients was released from the rotting and decomposition of complex organisms (e.g. wood, dead animals, etc.).


What happens to the cell when a organism grows larger?

Cells in a multi-cellular organism are usually not dramatically effected by that organism's growth. They will continue to grow until they are large enough where they need to divide. This process will always continue. In humans, when we have growth-spurts as children and young adults, are bodies release chemicals that tell our cells to reproduce faster.
