The temporary storage of energy in ATP molecules is part of which process? 1) cell division 2) cellular respiration 3) protein synthesis 4) DNA replication

During cellular respiration, the food molecules such as glucose, are oxidized to carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) and trapped in ATP (Adenosine triphosphate) form for further us of cell’s activities. ATP’s are formed at mitochondria - the cell’s powerhouse. This type of organelle takes and breaks nutrients absorbed by the cell and creates energy afterward. The energy from ATP is then used by the body in kinetic activities like running & walking or involuntary activities like breathing, blood circulation, stimulus-responding, etc. Thus, this happens during cellular respiration before the energy is being distributed to different parts of the body.
