Go to Settings / Battery and you can prevent or minimise a applications background cpu usage. Then go to your Data usage, from there you can prevent or minimize background data transfer.

Android used to let you disable 3G/4G data and just limit the phone to 2G data - - low bandwidth but adequate for syncing email and other tasks, much lower power usage. Unfortunately that option seems to have been removed.
Disabling 4G these days can often be counter productive for signal strength and battery life.

You can always have peace of mind with airplane mode or whole data disabled.
Oh well. :/
