The break down of food will produce ATP which the body uses as a sort of currency to drive the cell. Such as muscle movement. A small amount is lost as heat.

When living cells break down food molecules energy is?
When living cells break down food molecules energy is released and used to form ATP.
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.
What is a organism that break down molecules to generate energy?
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms break down molecules to produce energy.
The process by which cells break down simple food molecules to release energy they contain?
respirstion
The process by which cells break down molecules to relase energy without using oxygen?
anaerobic respiration
When living cells break down food molecules energy is?

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 do Cells use to break down glucose and store its energy in molecules of ATP?
oxygen :)

limiting calorie intake and increasing energy needs
Why do cells break down sugar?
To get energy. Sugars are particularly important fuel molecules. They are oxidized in the food we eat and must be broken down into smaller molecules before our cells can use them.
