How does the food change into Energy???

Agree/Disagree Your blood is a part of how an energy drink affects your heart. Your heart is connected to your mouth. Cells are a part of how the body uses an energy drink.

Now that the nutrients (glucose, protein, carbohydrates) are in your blood how does the body change it into ENERGY!

Lets watch a video about food and energy Take notes Pg. 88R Start at 2:26.

Mitochondria

Function of the Mitochondria Notes pg. 88R Mitochondria are often referred to as the powerhouse of the cell. The main job is to perform cellular respiration. This means it takes in nutrients from the cell, breaks it down, and turns it into energy. This energy is then in turn used by the cell to carry out various functions. The number of mitochondria present is dependent upon how much energy the cell requires. The more energy a cell needs the more mitochondria that will be present. Cells have the ability to produce more mitochondria as needed. They also can combine mitochondria to make larger ones.

Draw a model of how fuel sources are turned into energy! Pg. 88L

Go back to your model and add this new step to your model. Human body Model pg. 84 L Go back to your model and add this new step to your model.

Agree/Disagree All cells have the same function. Cells are only in some parts of your body. Plant and Animal cells are exactly the same thing. Metal is made out of cells. Teeth are made of cells. Hair is not made of cells.
