Document Summary

Carbohydrates break down into monosaccharides: name the primary storage for excess energy that was not stored in atp. Excess energy is stored as glycogen in muscle or liver cells. If those are full, then it is stored as fat. Atp can be used to power up functional work, transport molecules into the cell through proteins, and help the chemical work of enzymes. Cellular respiration is a process that uses oxygen to break down glucose and produce carbon dioxide, water, and atp. The glucose molecule is broken down in the cytosol rst. Extra proteins are broken down into amino acids, which are used to make new proteins. Proteins are used to make energy when fats and carbohydrates are unavailable: de ne anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration is when oxygen is not needed to break down glycogen. All chemical reactions going on in the body. Food has many macromolecules (polymers) which are broken into monomers in the digestive tract.
