Mitochondria are the organelles responsible for metabolizing food molecules and storing the energy given off by converting ADP to ATP, the universal energy vehicle of living things.

ADP (Adenosine DiPhosphate)

ATP (Adenosine TriPhosphate)

What transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy?

The process that transforms energy in food molecules to usable energy is called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose molecules in food are broken down in cells to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the form of energy that cells can readily use to power their functions.
