ATP
Both whales and seaweeds use cellular respiration to convert glucose into energy. In whales, this process occurs in their cells using oxygen to break down glucose, producing ATP, the energy currency of the cell. Seaweeds, on the other hand, primarily use photosynthesis to create glucose from sunlight, and then they also utilize cellular respiration to convert that glucose into energy, often in the presence of oxygen. Thus, both organisms rely on similar biochemical pathways to transform glucose into usable energy.
During respiration, chemical energy stored in glucose is converted into usable energy in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This process involves a series of metabolic reactions, primarily glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. As glucose is broken down, energy is released and harnessed to produce ATP, while byproducts like carbon dioxide and water are generated. Overall, respiration transforms the energy from food into a form that cells can utilize for various functions.
Respiration, also called cellular respiration, is the process when animal/plant cells break down glucose to release its energy. Respiration occurs in two stages: (1) Glycolysis, (2) Krebs Cycle/ citric acid cycle. Stage 1, glycolysis, occurs in the cytoplasm, when glucose is broken down a little, and 2 ATP (energy storages) are made. Stage 2, the Krebs Cycle/ citric acid cycle, occurs in the mitochondria of a cell, when the glucose molecules are really broken down; a large amount of energy is released, in the form of 34 ATP! Added together, the net total of ATP is 34. The cell will later use this energy to help the organism function.
Producers, primarily plants and some algae, utilize cellular respiration to convert the glucose they produce during photosynthesis into usable energy. This process occurs in the mitochondria of their cells, where glucose is broken down with the help of oxygen to generate ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy currency of the cell. Additionally, some bacteria and fungi can also be considered producers in ecosystems, as they contribute to energy flow through decomposition and nutrient cycling.
Food is converted into usable energy through a process called cellular respiration. During cellular respiration, glucose from food is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the energy currency of the cell. This process occurs in the mitochondria of cells.
The main source of readily usable human energy is glucose, which is derived from carbohydrates in the diet. Glucose is broken down in cells through a process called cellular respiration to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the primary molecule used for energy by the body.
The process that converts sugar (glucose) into a usable form of energy in our body is called cellular respiration. Through a series of biochemical reactions, glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to produce ATP, which is the main form of energy used by cells for various cellular processes.
glucose is systematically broken down to CO2 and H2O in the cellular fluids and mitochondria, to form biologically transportable and usable energy, in the form of the chemical ATP.
Glucose contains chemical energy which is released when it is broken down during cellular respiration to produce ATP. Light energy is not stored in glucose.
The breaking down of glucose into usable energy.
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is the usable form of energy for cells. It is produced through cellular respiration, where glucose is broken down in the presence of oxygen to generate ATP molecules, which can be used by the cell for various functions.
No, cellular respiration does not occur in chloroplasts. Chloroplasts are responsible for photosynthesis, where they convert light energy into chemical energy in the form of glucose. Cellular respiration occurs in the mitochondria of eukaryotic cells, where glucose is broken down to produce ATP for cellular energy.
During respiration, the energy transformation that occurs is the conversion of chemical energy stored in glucose molecules into a usable form of energy called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This process involves the breaking down of glucose molecules through a series of biochemical reactions, releasing energy that is then captured in the form of ATP to power cellular activities.
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.

All producers (photosynthetic or chemosynthetic) use their energy source (the sun for photosynthetic producers, the heat for chemosynthetic archaebacteria) to convert carbon dioxide and water into GLUCOSE and oxygen. Glucose is another word for sugar and its chemical formula is C6H12O6. Glucose is then broken down in the mitochondria into active transport proteins, adenosine triphosphate, and energy. Consumers then get the engergy by eating producers until being eaten by another consumer.
