Cells can release energy in two basic processes:

Cellular respiration and fermentation. Cellular respiration requires oxygen but fermentation does not. Cellular respiration releases MUCH more usable energy then fermentation does.

Can water enter a cell by active transport?

There are two ways that the molecules (i.e: water) move through the membrane: passive transport and active transport. Active transport requires that the cell use energy that it has obtained from food to move the molecules (or larger particles) through the cell membrane. Passive transport does not require such an energy expenditure, and occurs spontaneously.


What are two ways an animal uses energy?

State two ways in which the energy released in respiration is used in all animals?Respiration and Movement are two examples of this. I see this is an AQA GCE question... it is what I am doing!


What is the name of two ways the food are used by the body?

Food is used by the body for energy production through metabolism, as well as for building and repairing tissues through the intake of essential nutrients like proteins, vitamins, and minerals.


Name the 2 ways that materials can pass through the cell membrane?

The two ways that materials can pass through the cell membrane are active transport and passive transport. In active transport the molecules cannot pass freely across the membrane and have to be carried across in ways that require energy. In passive transport the molecules can pass freely across the membrane in ways that do not take any energy.


What structure do plant cells have during cytokinesis that animal cells do not?

Plant cells have a cell plate that forms between the two daughter cells during cytokinesis, which eventually develops into a new cell wall. This structure is unique to plant cells and is not found in animal cells.

What are 2 ways a cell eats food?

Two ways a cell can eat food is by one, endocytosis which is when non-dissolved materials or food enter through the cell membrane to the cell's cytoplasm. These non-dissolved materials come from the outside environment. This way also includes phagocytosis in which an cell use pseudopods to help bring in the non-dissolved materials from the outside environment in to the cytoplasm. The second way is what a plant cell use get it's food is by chloroplast ( part of a cell ) which makes food from carbon dioxide, sunlight, and water.


What is the food production in the cell?

Since the cell is where ALL the chemistry of life goes on, and so produces all of that food you ask about ... I would say that it's predominant. well if u go deep in chemistary of cell there are two main reactions occurs which are knwon as anabolism and catabolism, togheter called metabolism. catabolism is the reaction in which complex food compounds are broken into simpler one which can give energy to cell for its functions like respiration etc. anabolism is the reaction in which simple compounds are fuse or react together to form complex compound which either server as structural compound or as energy reserve so by these two ways a cell form or utilize pre formed food.

What are two ways cells can break down food?

Cells can break down food through the processes of digestion, which occurs in the digestive tract with the help of enzymes, and cellular respiration, which takes place within the cell's mitochondria to produce energy in the form of ATP.

How does a barbecue transfer energy?

A barbecue transfers energy in two main ways: through direct contact (such as the flames or hot coals directly heating the food) and through radiation (where the heat energy from the barbecue is transferred to the food through infrared radiation).
