- Notes
- College Board, S.4.2: Energy Transfer, grades 9-12: • During cellular respiration, molecules from food — mainly sugars and fats — are converted in the presence of oxygen into carbon dioxide and water, and the chemical energy of that reaction is used to combine ADP and an inorganic phosphate to make ATP.
