• APT is The glucose from a plant gets changed in an animal to adenosine triphosphate. ATP is made inside mitochondria and chloroplasts. The cells use the energy stored in the ATP to power the functions of the cell.

• Cellular respiration is when cells transform oxygen and other nutrients into energy.

• Plants have mitochondria and chloroplasts that have chlorophyll, it looks like a bag of coins. Plants have stomata and this helps get oxygen and carbon dioxide in and out.

• C6 H12 O6 + 6O = 6CO2 + 6H20 + ATP (cellular respiration)

• This means glucose + oxygen = carbon dioxide + water + energy is cellular respiration

• Autotrophs make their own food, example plants

• Heterotrophs get food from other organism, example animals.

Essential Nutrients:

• Carbs - sugar molecules (simple - quick burst of energy, complex - takes time to digest)

• Protein - build muscles

• Fats - stored energy

• Vitamins - Essential for normal growth

• Minerals - assist the body

• Minerals and Vitamins are not considered food because they don’t provide energy.

• Proteins- required for structure and regulation of the body and tissues and organs.

• Carbs- the body's primary source of energy, protects your organs.

• Vitamins- helping to fight infection, wound healing, making our bones stronger.

• Minerals- keeping your bones, muscles, heart, and brain working properly, also important for making enzymes and hormones.

• Water- regulates blood temperature, moistens tissues in the eyes, protects body organs and tissues,
