What process does the panda use for energy?

Pandas primarily use a process called cellular respiration to convert the energy stored in food into a usable form. Their diet mainly consists of bamboo, which is low in nutrients, so they consume large quantities to meet their energy needs. Although they are technically carnivores, pandas have adapted to a herbivorous diet, relying on the energy derived from the cellulose in bamboo through digestion and fermentation in their gut. Despite their low-energy diet, they maintain a relatively sedentary lifestyle to conserve energy.
