Where is most of the chemical energy in living organism stored?

The most of the chemical energy in living organisms stored in energy storage molecules. Glucose is the major storage energy in humans and this causes ATP.


What is A magnet erasing a computer disk is that a physical or chemical?

Magnetic erasing of a computer disk is a physical change. The polarity of the molecules in the storage media is altered, but the material retains the same composition so it is NOT a chemical change.


What is chemical energy stored in molecules?

It depends on the species and what kind of organism. For animals common storage molecules are glycogen for sugars and fatty acids for fats. In plants storage of sugar is usually in the form of starch. However, some bacteria grow on exotic substances, and may use elemental sulphur as their storage molecule. In bacteria it also depeneds on the environment in which they are living and the availability of certain elements, for example, poly hydroxy butyrate is used as a storage molecule when conditions are limited in nitrogen and phosphorus, while other molecules would be used in other conditions.


The chemical storage molecule for energy?

bacteria? No. The chemical storage molecule for energy, in living things, is ATP, adenosine triphosphate.


Are glycogen granules living?

No, they are simple storage molecules.


What is the storage molecule or molecules of algae?

What are molecules that store energy?

Storage can happen with stable molecules, and ATP is not a stable molecule. It is the energy "currency"- as some like to refer to it. NADH and FADH are electron carriers. Starch (plants), glycogen (animals) are storage carbohydrates; triglycerides are storage lipids. Proteins and nucleic acids may also be used for energy, but the their catabolites are not good for the animal.


What are functional proteins?

Storage molecules, transport molecules, and movement.


Polysaccharides and description of its main function in animals?

They function as storage molecules as well as structural molecules. For example: storage- glycogen structural- chitin (hard exoskeleton of ants and other insects)


What do cells use for energy storage and insulation?

Cells use lipid molecules for energy storage as well as insulation and structuring. These molecules are mostly known in the vernacular as fats although they do encompass more than just traditional fat molecules.
