Question

plants, animals, and all other organisms need energy from food to live and grow. how do organisms get energy from food? inside an organisms cells, food molecules are broken down and rearranged through chemical reactions. the reactions release chemical energy that the cells can use to power growth and other important cell processes. these processes allow the entire organism to live and grow. select all the true statements. chemical energy can be used for cell growth. animals need food, but plants dont. molecules from food can provide energy.

Explanation:

• For the first statement: The text says "the reactions release chemical energy that the cells can use to power growth...", so chemical energy can be used for cell growth.
• For the second statement: The first sentence states "Plants, animals, and all other organisms need energy from food", so the claim that plants don't need food is false.
• For the third statement: The text mentions "food molecules are broken down... The reactions release chemical energy", so molecules from food can provide energy.

Answer:

• Chemical energy can be used for cell growth.
• Molecules from food can provide energy.
