What else can I help you with?
What is the correlation between the energy requirements of cells and the number of mitochondria in cells?
Cells that are highly metabolically active have a high energy requirement for metabolic processes. Such cells include liver cells, muscle cells and sperm cells. These types of cell therefore have high numbers of mitochondria, the organelles that act as the site of aerobic respiration. This is because they need a plentiful supply of ATP (adenosine triphosphate, the energy-carrier molecule) for metabolic processes.
What energy carrier cells use to transport high-energy electrons?
pigment
What is the high-energy molecule used by cells?
ATP
What is the high energy molecule used by cells?
ATP
Why are covalently bonded compounds generally poor ion formers?
Because the sharing of electrons between the attractive force of two or more atomic nuclei in a covalent compound generally leads to a high ionization energy requirement to form any ion from the compound.
Why do cells need energy to survive?
cells are composed of highly ordered molecules that contain high-energy hydrocarbon bonds
what TYPE of animal cell that has a lot of mitochondra?
Cells that require a lot of energy to carry out their functions, such as muscle cells and nerve cells, tend to have a high concentration of mitochondria. Muscle cells, for example, require a lot of energy to contract and relax, so they have a high density of mitochondria to produce the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) required for energy. Similarly, nerve cells require a lot of energy to transmit signals along their length, so they also have a high concentration of mitochondria. Other cells that have a high density of mitochondria include liver cells, which have a lot of metabolic processes, and kidney cells, which require a lot of energy to carry out their filtration function.
What are the Ecological conditions necessary for a sit-and-wait?
low predator energy requirement high prey density high prey mobility
Radiation treatment kills cancer cells by?
by killing cancer cells with high-energy waves.
When does respiration occure?
Respiration occures in the cells of the body. Respiration is always occurring. We are always breathing, so respiration is always occurring Respiration occurs inside cells in organelles called MITOCHONDRIA. MITOCHONDRIA are found in both plant and animal cell.Cells that have a high energy requirement contain more MITOCHONDRIA than cells that require less energy. The muscle cell in your legs, for example: Have lots of MITOCHONDRIA.
ATP is the energy currency in cells by releasing the energy stored in what kind of bonds?
high energy phosphatidyl bond.
In what types of cells would you expect to find a high concentration of mitochondria?
You would expect to find a high concentration of mitochondria in cells that require a lot of energy, such as muscle cells and nerve cells.
