Detailed explanation-1: -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.
Detailed explanation-2: -The chemical energy that organisms need comes from food. Food consists of organic molecules that store energy in their chemical bonds. In terms of obtaining food for energy, there are two types of organisms: autotrophs and heterotrophs.
Detailed explanation-3: -The cells all rely on the same process to get their energy: cellular respiration, a process that releases energy by combining glucose and oxygen.
Detailed explanation-4: -Animals can make use of the sugars provided by the plants in their own cellular energy factories, the mitochondria. These energy factories produce a versatile energy currency in the form of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This high-energy molecule stores the energy we need to do just about everything we do.
Detailed explanation-5: -Animals get their energy from the food they eat. Animals depend on other living things for food. Some animals eat plants while others eat other animals. This passing of energy from the sun to plants to animals to other animals is called a food chain.
