Question

By what process do all organisms release energy stores in the bonds of glucose

Answer 1

I believe the cellular process by which all organisms release energy stored in the bonds of glucose is the cellular respiration. Cellular respiration is the process that generates energy in the form of ATP in the cell, supplying molecules needed to make the metabolic reactions of an organism run. The process converts biochemical energy from nutrients such as glucose into ATP, and then release waste products.

Answer 2

The correct answer is glycolysis.

Glycolysis is the process inside the cytosol where glucose is converted into pyruvate and the energy in the form of ATP is released. It can be divided into three main steps: 1. the conversion of glucose into fructose 1,6-bisphosphate 2. breakage of the fructose 1,6-bisphosphate into two three-carbon fragments 3. the three-carbon fragments are oxidized to pyruvate and the energy is produced.
