The cycle is known as oxidative phosphorylation. It begins with the breakdown of glucose which enters a cycle called the citrus acid or Krebs cycle. The next step after the cycle is to attach high energy phosphate bonds to an ADP molecule which becomes ATP. ATP is the molecule that supplies energy in molecular processes by releasing energy as the P or phosphate high energy bonds break. Oxygen is involved in the process, hence oxidative phosphorylation.
It's a complicated cycle and chain, so if you need details just look up the cycle.

The glucose molecule (C6H12O6) has many bonds. When the bonds break energy is created called ATP.
