Question

Whats happens to the energy in the bonds of glucose

Answer 1

During cellular respiration,glucose, in the presence of oxygen, is converted into carbon dioxide and water. ... During this process, the energy stored inglucose is transferred to ATP.Energy is stored in the bondsbetween the phosphate groups (PO4-) of the ATP molecule.

Answer 2

Glucose breaks down into CO2 and H2O  in cellular respiration to liberate energy in the form of ATP molecules which cells use for its metabolic and other activities. Glucose is formed by the breakdown of starch in plants. Food is stored in the form of starch, a polysaccharide, in plants. Starch is made up of thousands of units of glucose. Starch is hydrolyzed into glucose in a series of steps, controlled by hydrolyzing enzymes.
