All living cells strictly require energy in form of ATP to perform their cellular functions. This energy is obtained when food molecules are broken down on their cells in order to release the stored energy in their bonds. This anabolic process is called CELLULAR RESPIRATION.
CELL CYCLE is one of the cellular functions performed by a cell, as every cell needs to undergo division. According to this question, the cell cycle requires energy, which is also supplied via the process of CELLULAR RESPIRATION.
Absorption is a process that takes place in the small intestines or ileum of the GI tract, in which simple and soluble nutrients are absorbed into the blood stream.
Absorption is enhanced by several adaptations of the gut such as large surface area of the gut which directly facilitates absorption of nutrients.
Presence of villi and microvilli in the gut increases the surface area for absorption of nutrients in the ileum.
