A process by which food, in the form of glucose is transformed into energy with cells.

Where does the energy being stored?

Respiration that requires oxygen

Respiration that occurs without oxygen

It acts as the cell storehouse of energy. It enables cell to store energy safely.

ATP close the gap between____

It means safely storing and releasing energy as needed

refers to the breakdown of food molecules into simpler forms, like glucose, which are then used as fuel for the process of cellular respiration, where energy is extracted from these molecules

begins with the teeth cutting food into smaller pieces

mastication, molars and pre molars grinds foods

Helps mix it with saliva
