Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
the process by wich the cells in plants and animals break down sugar and turn it into energy is ____
A
photosynthises
B
cellular respiration
C
ATP
D
digestion
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cellular respiration is a metabolic pathway that breaks down glucose and produces ATP. The stages of cellular respiration include glycolysis, pyruvate oxidation, the citric acid or Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation .

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products. 8.

Detailed explanation-3: -During aerobic cellular respiration, glucose reacts with oxygen, forming ATP that can be used by the cell.

Detailed explanation-4: -Summary. Through the process of cellular respiration, the energy in food is converted into energy that can be used by the body’s cells. During cellular respiration, glucose and oxygen are converted into carbon dioxide and water, and the energy is transferred to ATP.
