Food provides molecules that serve as fuel and building material for all organisms. Plants undergo photosynthesis and make their
own food. Other organisms, like us and the horse seen above, are consumers and eat food. How do ALL organisms use food as a fuel? Be sure to include the name of the process in your answer.
Like plants, animals also need food for their bodies. But they can't produce their own food. They have to depend on others for food purposes. After eating anything, that don' t go their cells directly. It passes many stages; then, they go the cell as a fuel. From eating to consuming by the cell, many digestive processes happen, such as the degradation of larger molecules to small molecules. Many chemical reactions also occur to covert elements to that form, which can be taken by cells as fuel as the reaction in mitochondria.
B12 (cobalamin): Perhaps the most well-known of all the B vitamins, B12 is vital for neurological function, DNA production and red blood cell development. B12 is found naturally in animal sources like meats, eggs, seafood and dairy.
