Detailed explanation-1: -Answer and Explanation: Enzymes directly controls the rate at which food is broken down to release energy. Enzymes significantly regulate the rate of chemical reactions going in the body. They are important for the body and take part in several reactions such as help in digestion and metabolism.
Detailed explanation-2: -The process of breakdown of food in the cell with the release of energy is called cellular respiration. Cellular respiration takes place in the cells of all organisms. In the cell, the food (glucose) is broken down into carbon dioxide and water using oxygen.
Detailed explanation-3: -Digestion is the process where the large molecules in the food that we eat are broken down into smaller ones that we can use for energy or as building blocks. This is done in the digestive system by enzymes found in saliva, in stomach acid, in the small intestine, and in the large intestine.
Detailed explanation-4: -Glucose, or blood sugar, is the main source of energy for your body’s cells, tissues, and organs. Glucose can be used immediately or stored in the liver and muscles for later use.
Detailed explanation-5: -Excess glucose beyond what the body needs for immediate energy is converted into glycogen, a storage form of carbohydrate, or converted into fat and stored in body fat cells. Glucose provides energy for all body cells. The brain and nerve cells use only glucose for energy.
