It depends. If it is an autotroph (plant cell) then the cloroplasts use clorophyll, a green pigment that converts sunlight into useable energy.

If it is a heterotrophic (animal) cell, then it uses endocytosis to bring food into the cell. The food is put into a vacuole and mitochondria inside the cell break the food down into energy.
