Chloroplasts - found only in plants and algae. they convert solar radiation energy to chemical energy usable for the cell's metabolism.
mitochondria - found in both plants and animals, they produce energy (in the form of ATP - chemical compound) by decomposing sugars and fats. they use up oxygen to do it.
If you have just eaten, your body will secrete insulin. Insulin is the hormone that allows glucose to enter cells. That way they will have the proper energy for their normal functions.
If you have not eaten for a while, your body is running out of glucose to feed the cells so it needs to secrete another hormone called glucagon. This hormone is the complete opposite of insulin because it breaks down glycogen, proteins and fats into glucose.
These fibers provide vis- ceral motor (parasympathetic) innervation to the viscera. The only cranial nerves that transmit parasympathetic fibers are the oculomotor, facial, glossopharyngeal, and vagus nerves.
