Detailed explanation-1: -Bioenergetics is the part of biochemistry concerned with the energy involved in making and breaking of chemical bonds in the molecules found in biological organisms. It can also be defined as the study of energy relationships and energy transformations and transductions in living organisms.

Detailed explanation-2: -Bioenergetics is the branch of biochemistry that focuses on how cells transform energy, often by producing, storing or consuming adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Bioenergetic processes, such as cellular respiration or photosynthesis, are essential to most aspects of cellular metabolism, therefore to life itself.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bioenergetics is the study of how energy flows through a living system. In other words, it is the study of how organisms harvest and use energy. We will be looking at photosynthesis and cellular respiration as examples. The currency of energy, ATP, plays a key role in bioenergetics.

Detailed explanation-4: -Bioenergetics is a discipline of biology that studies how cells convert energy, most commonly through the production, storage, or consumption of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). Most components of cellular metabolism, and thus life itself, rely on bioenergetic activities such cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are two laws of bioenergetics. 1) Energy cannot be created or destroyed, but can be changed from one form to another. 2) Energy transfer will always proceed in the direction of increased entropy, and the release of “free energy”.
