  • Cellular Respiration: How Cells Produce Energy
    When cells break down food molecules, energy is released.

    Here's a breakdown:

    * Cellular Respiration: This is the process by which cells break down food molecules (like glucose) to release energy.

    * ATP: The energy released is stored in a molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

    * Energy Use: Cells use this stored energy for various functions, including:

    * Building and repairing cell structures

    * Moving substances across cell membranes

    * Muscle contraction

    * Nerve impulse transmission

    * Maintaining body temperature
