What provides the initial energy to break down glucose during glycolysis?
ATP provides energy to break down glucose during glycolysis.
How does the structure of starch make it suitable for its function?
its made up of many small sub units of alpha glucose so it can break down to provide energy/ glucose to be respired
What does the cell get when it breaks the bonds of the glucose molecule?
when you break the bonds of the glucose molecule you get energy.
Does chloroplast release energy when they break down glucose?
yes
When cells break down carbohydrates for energy what energy currency molecule is produced?
Glucose.
High energy electrons that move down the electron transport chain ultimately provide the energy needed to?
of course it is break glucose into pyruvic acid.
Mitochondria convert the energy stored in?
ATP.Mitochondria break down glucose. This energy is stored in ATP
How do muscles produce energy?
muscles use chemical energy in glucose , as the bonds in glucose break, chemical energy changes to mechanical energy and the muscle contracts.. well there you go that how you produce mechanical energy :)
Why is respiration important?
Respiratory system is important because it helps in compounding air we breathe and glucose into energy.This energy helps in our daily activities.
Mitochondria break down glucose to form?
ATP (energy), CO2, and water.
Why do you have cellular respiration?
To break down Glucose molecules into ATP which can then used for energy.
Glycolysis is a series of reactions that break down what and release its chemical energy?
glucose
