HOW CELLS HARVEST ENERGY STORED IN NUTRIENTS

RESPIRATION Animals require a constant supply of energy. This energy performs biological work. The ATP provides this energy. All animals can generate ATP by breaking down organic nutrients. These nutrients are carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. Energy is released during respiration. This energy is used
