Cellular Energy
Energy is produced and utilized by cells to carry out various functions such as growth, division, and movement. The energy used by cells is primarily derived from the breakdown of nutrients such as glucose and fatty acids through a process called cellular respiration.
Additional Info?
The main energy currency of cells is adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is produced through the breakdown of nutrients. ATP is used by cells as a source of energy for various cellular processes, including muscle contraction, nerve impulse transmission, and protein synthesis.
