Through cellular respiration energy is released from sugars and certain organic molecules and then is used in the formation of another organic molecule called ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main energy source that cells use for most of their work.

What does the cell membrane use for energy?

The cell membrane does not use energy.


The direct source of energy in the cell?

The direct source of energy in a cell is adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is produced through cellular respiration, which converts nutrients from food into a form of energy that the cell can use to carry out its functions. ATP releases energy when its phosphate bonds are broken, providing the necessary energy for cellular processes.


What molecule does the cell actually use for energy?

The cell primarily uses adenosine triphosphate (ATP) as the molecule for energy. ATP is produced during cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down to release energy that is then used for various cellular processes.

What substance gives energy to a sperm?

The main substance that provides energy to a sperm cell is adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is produced through cellular respiration, which involves breaking down sugars like glucose to release energy that the sperm cell can use to move and fertilize an egg.
