What else can I help you with?
The bonds that hold glucose and other food molecules together contain what kinds of energy?
The bonds in glucose and other food molecules contain potential energy. When these bonds are broken during metabolic processes, the stored potential energy is released and can be harnessed by cells to fuel various activities.
What is insolation changed into potential energy by?
Insolation is changed into potential energy through the process of solar panels converting sunlight into electrical energy. Solar panels contain photovoltaic cells that absorb sunlight and generate an electric current, which can be used to power devices or stored in batteries as potential energy.
What type of energy can be utilized by your cells?
Cells primarily utilize potential energy stored in chemical bonds.
Why do cells need energy to survive?
cells are composed of highly ordered molecules that contain high-energy hydrocarbon bonds
Which forms of potential energy are inside a battery circuit?
In a battery circuit, the potential energy is stored in the form of chemical potential energy within the battery. This energy is converted into electrical potential energy when the battery is connected in a circuit and used to power devices.
What are the green ovals found in plant cells but not animal cells?
The green ovals are chloroplasts, which are responsible for photosynthesis in plant cells. Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll, a pigment that captures sunlight energy to convert into chemical energy. Animal cells do not contain chloroplasts and rely on other organelles for their energy needs.
In the muscle cells in your body blank energy is changed into blank energy?
potential into kinetic
How many mitochondria does a skin cell have?
Cells that require the most energy contain the most energy generating mitochondria. The cells of the brain, the skeletal muscle and heart muscle, and the eye contain the highest number of mitochondria (as many as 10,000 per cell) while the skin cells, which do not require much energy, contain only a few hundred of them.
Where in the human body are cells located that contain a large number of mitochondria?
Cells that contain a large number of mitochondria are typically found in tissues with high energy demands, such as muscle cells and liver cells.
What kind of energy is in your muscle cells?
Chemical potential, which can be converted to kinetic energy to make movement.
Do some cells contain organelles but not others?
Yes, certain types of cells contain specific organelles while others do not, based on their function and specialized requirements. For example, animal cells contain mitochondria for energy production, while plant cells contain chloroplasts for photosynthesis. However, all cells have some common organelles, such as the nucleus and cytoplasm.
Do stem cells contain chlorophyll?
No, stem cells do not contain chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in plants that is essential for photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert light energy into chemical energy. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to develop into different types of cells in the body.
