      I have a question

      What is the organelle that uses energy from food to make high-energy compounds????

      Cytosol? Mitochondria? Intestine?

      i do not think it is cytosol. it could be mitochondria to a certain extent

      quote jwalin:

      intestine is no organelle

      I know, don’t worry 🙂 😆
      It’s just quite stupid question 😉 Energy from food?

      Anyway, cytosol too, as there takes place the glycolysis 😉

      Hi,
      Yes, Mitochondria, please refer to the following site to know how ATP is generated from fatty acids by mitochondria.

      It would be mitochondria – mitochondria creates atp energy by a process called cellular respiration. This occurs in the inner folded membranes of the mitochondria. I believe your question was asking about glucose.
