Answer:

<u>True</u>

Explanation:

In cells, energy is obtained from food through the process of cellular respiration. In mitochondria, this occurs through aerobic respiration- here, cells breakdown sugars like glucose into carbon dioxide and water and energy in the form of ATP or adenosine triphosphate.

In cellular aerobic respiration:

C6H12O6 (glucose) + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + ≅38 ATP
