Organisms undergo many different processes in order to be able to store energy and utilize that energy. Through which of the following processes is energy stored in the form of glucose?
photosynthesis
Which term is defined as all the chemical reactions that are requires to sustain life?
METABOLISM. Metabolism is the sum of the group of reactions to obtain energy and basic compounds from food (catabolism), and the group of reactions to form organic molecules and to use energy obtained form food (anabolism).
Humans and other animals need a variety of materials in order to form the molecular building blocks of life. What is the primary source of these materials?
food
Minerals seeping into an organisms remains form what?
Minerals seeping into an organisms remains form fossils. sediment
Where do living organism obtain energy for cell process?
When bonds form during cell processes, energy is released.
In what form is energy returned to the environment by living organisms?
Metabolism
Where do living organisms obtain energy for processes?
When bonds form during cell processes, energy is released.
Where do living organisms energy for cell processes?
When bonds form during cell processes, energy is released.
Which cell function is similar in all organisms?
no because there are different types of organisms that function differently
What three processes occurs to form clouds?
The three processes that form clouds are evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.
What would the process be called that releases energy?
The process is called metabolism. The mitochrondria function as energy breakdown organelles in the cell. The term for aerobic metabolism is cellular respiration.

Why are viruses also classified as living?
Viruses are not typically considered to be organisms because they are incapable of "independent" or autonomous reproduction or metabolism. This controversy is problematic because some cellular organisms are also incapable of independent survival (but not of independent metabolism and procreation) and live as obligatory intracellular parasites. Although viruses have a few enzymes and molecules characteristic of living organisms, they have no metabolism of their own and cannot synthesize and organize the organic compounds that form them. Naturally, this rules out autonomous reproduction and they can only be passively replicated by the machinery of the host cell. In this sense they are similar to inanimate matter. While viruses sustain no independent metabolism, and thus are usually not accounted organisms, they do have their own genes and they do evolve by similar mechanisms by which organisms evolve.
What functions in lipid metabolism cholesterol and fat synthesis and breakdown?
One of their roles within animal metabolism is energy production in the form of adenosine. Fatty acid metabolism consists of catabolic processes that generate energy. Fatty acids synthesized by the liver are converted to triglyceride and carry cholesterol from the body back to the liver for breakdown and excretion.
What does metabolic processes do?
metabolism organism, being - a living thing that has (or can develop) the ability to act or function independently cellular respiration, internal respiration, respiration - the metabolic processes whereby certain organisms obtain energy from organic molecules; processes that take place in the cells and tissues during which energy is released and carbon dioxide is produced and absorbed by the blood to be transported to the lungs anabolism, constructive metabolism - the synthesis in living organisms of more complex substances (e.g., living tissue) from simpler ones together with the storage of energy basal metabolism - the amount of energy required to maintain the body of an individual in a resting state catabolism, destructive metabolism, katabolism, dissimilation - breakdown in living organisms of more complex substances into simpler ones together with release of energy fat metabolism - a metabolic process that breaks down ingested fats into fatty acids and glycerol and then into simpler compounds that can be used by cells of the body glycolysis - a metabolic process that breaks down carbohydrates and sugars through a series of reactions to either pyruvic acid or lactic acid and releases energy for the body in the form of ATP citric acid cycle, Krebs citric acid cycle, Krebs cycle, tricarboxylic acid cycle - in all plants and animals: a series of enzymatic reactions in mitochondria involving oxidative metabolism of acetyl compounds to produce high-energy phosphate compounds that are the source of cellular energy biological process, organic process - a process occurring in living organisms
How matter and energy exchanged between the spheres?
Matter and energy are constantly exchanged between the spheres through different processes. These processes are in the form of chemical reactions, radioactive decay, the radiation of energy, & the growth and decay of organisms.
