Food taken in by living organisms can be broken down and used to? a. break down atp molecules. b. build atp molecules from adp. c. break the bonds in starch molecules. d. build starch molecules from glucose.

Answer;

B. build ATP molecules from ADP.

Explanation;

-Cells do not use the energy from oxidation reactions as soon as it is released. Instead, they convert it into small, energy-rich molecules such as ATP and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), which can be used throughout the cell to power metabolism and construct new cellular components.

-Cells need energy to accomplish the tasks of life. Beginning with energy sources obtained from their environment in the form of sunlight and organic food molecules, eukaryotic cells make energy-rich molecules like ATP and NADH via energy pathways including photosynthesis, glycolysis, the citric acid cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.
