2Explain how food is converted into energy that can be used by the rabbit. Include the starting materials and products of the chemical process that releases energy for the cells to use.

food like glycogen is first hydrolysed to glucose molecules then the bonds are broken to release energy called catabolism the energy from bonds broken is stored as ATP which can be used by body this process is called Respiration,

Explanation:

many other transport proteins, often called pumps, move materials against a concentration gradient. active transport drives molecules across a membrane from a region of lower concentration to a region of higher concentration. this process, shown in figure 5.1, uses transport proteins powered by chemi- cal energy.
