Hello Friends ✌
Here is u r Ans ➡

✨Animals utilize the mitochondria within their cells to perform cellular respiration. Takes the glucose out of food and oxygen they breathe in to create wastes of carbon dioxide and water, but also useable energy in the form of ATP as well.

Cellular Respiration starts with glycolysis which turns a glucose molecule into 2 pyruvates. Next, an intermediate step occurs involving pyruvate turning into acetyl-CoA. Next, the Krebs Cycle (aka Citric Acid Cycle) converting the acetyl-CoA to NADH, FADH2, and ATP. FInally, The electron transport chain performs oxidative phosphorylation converting all previous products into ATP.

✅That's because food molecules contain potential energy, or stored energy, that can do work in the future. When your body breaks down these molecules, energy is released that it can use to do work, like walk or think. But food molecules aren't the only source of potential energy.
