Food provides molecules that serve as fuel and building material for all organisms. Plants undergo photosynthesis and make their own food. Other organisms, like humans and the horse seen below, are consumers and eat food. How is energy released from food, and what is the importance of ATP? Include the name of the process and the overall chemical equation in your explanation

The correct answer is - cellular respiration is the process to release energy from food in the form of ATP.

Explanation:

Food, as we know, is the only source of energy for the body but it requires to converted from the form of what we eat which is carbohydrates, protein, fat into an energy source that cells and the body can use for various functions. The process that converts food into energy is cellular respiration.

Cellular respiration is a set of complex chemical reactions that convert sugars into energy in the form of ATP which is the only currency of energy cell can use. The reaction has three stages glycolysis converts glucose in pyruvate, Krebs cycle releases carbon in the form of CO2 from pyruvate, and electron transport which is oxygen-dependent reaction.

Cellular respiration can be understood by the following chemical equation:

C6H1206 + 6O2 > 6CO2 + 6H2O + ATP

i don't know, but does anyone wanna be friends? i'm doing my homework at 1: 49 in the morning : /

1: most common garden plants prefer loam — soils with a balance of different-sized mineral particles (approximately 40% sand, 40% silt, and 20% clay) with ample organic matter and pore space. however, some plants grow better in sandy soils, while others are well-adapted to clay soils.

2: available water capacity is the maximum amount of plant available water a soil can provide. it is an indicator of a soil's ability to retain water and make it sufficiently available for plant use. available water capacity is the water held in soil between its field capacity and permanent wilting point.

3: it is the same for all living things (plants and animals). it also includes very tiny organisms that our eyes cannot see. they are known as microorganisms, and include viruses, bacteria and fungi.
