Most are created by the mitochondria through cellular respiration, but some amounts of ATP are also created by the cytoplasm via glycolysis.

What function do chlorophyll perform in an animal cell?

Chlorophyll is not found in animal cells. It is a pigment that is found in plant cells and is involved in capturing light energy for photosynthesis. In animal cells, there is no need for chlorophyll as they do not photosynthesize.


Do plant cells specialize in the same way animal cells do?

Plant cells do specialize but not in the same way as animal cells. Animal cells have specialized cells such as nerve cells, reproductive cells or muscle cells etc. Plant cells do not have any of those. But Plant cells have other specialized cells such as photosynthesis cells, epidermal cells etc. Both Animal and Plant cells have specialized cells that perform a specific function to keep the cell/organism alive.


What is the difference between the animal cell and plant cell?

One main difference is that plant cells have a cell wall made of cellulose, while animal cells do not. Plant cells also typically have chloroplasts for photosynthesis, which animal cells lack. Plant cells often have a large central vacuole, while animal cells have smaller, scattered vacuoles.


How are bacterial cell different from animal and plant cells?

bacterial are much smaller plant cells are square shaped and animal cells are round also bacteria are prokaryotes,they dont have a nucleus,unlike plants and animal cells that do have a nucleus.


How do animals receive energy from food?

Animals receive energy from food through a process called cellular respiration. This process converts the chemical energy stored in food molecules into a form of energy that cells can use, known as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is then used by cells to carry out essential functions and activities needed for an animal's survival and growth.

What could be considered a powerhouse for animal cells?

The mitochondria, which produces ATP. ATP is used as an energy source in animal cells


Organelle that generates atp?

In plant cells, the chloroplast generates the atp. In animal cells, the mitochondria generates the atp.


Do both animal and plant cells have ATP?

Yes, both animal and plant cells produce ATP through cellular respiration, which is the process of converting glucose into energy. ATP is the primary energy currency in cells and is essential for various cellular processes.


What enzyme is common to both plant and animal cells in production of ATP?

The enzyme common to both plant and animal cells in the production of ATP is ATP synthase. This enzyme is responsible for synthesizing ATP from ADP and inorganic phosphate during cellular respiration.


What do human and animal cells obtain through lactic acid fermentation during exercises?

ATP


Fermentation in animal cells produces called?

ATP energy.


Do you think plant cells would have ATP as animal cells?

Of course they do. All life on Earth use ATP as energy source, including plants. Their method is also the same as in animal cells, by cellular respiration. One difference is that plant cells have an additional source of ATP, from light reaction of the photosynthesis.


Which organelles are responsible for the synthesis of ATP give examples for both plant and animal cells?

The organelles responsible for the synthesis of ATP are mitochondria. In plant cells, ATP is also produced in chloroplasts during photosynthesis. In animal cells, mitochondria are the primary organelles for ATP production through cellular respiration.


Are mitochdria found in plant cells animal cells or both?

Both plant and animal cells contain mitochondria for the synthesis of ATP. Animals eat food to get the material that is used in ATP synthesis and plant make the material used in ATP synthesis through the process of photosynthesis.


What is the primary organelle in animal cells that generates molecules of ATP?

mitochondria


Structure produces energy in the form of ATP for animal cells?
