Galvanic cells run spontaneously and do not require any energy to run to completion, but Electrolytic cells require energy to run to completion, and are non-spontaneous.

If the growth cycle requires cells to run?
The growth cycle requires _____ to run.
How does the energy saver on the air conditioner help?
It requires less energy to run, but produces the same effect.
What is one problem with fuel cell cars?
one problem with fuel cell cars is that if they run on solar energy then if theres no sun that day it won't have the power to reverse it into energy and run the car with the sun energy needed!
What happened if a cells mitochondria stopped working?
ATP production will be decreased critically. Cell will run out of energy
What are the name of high energy molecules that run the cell's machinery?
adenosine triphoshate
Why don't solar cells eventually run down as electrochemical cells do?
In the case of electrochemical cells, the energy is coming from the reactions inside the cell- the chemicals inside have some stored energy, and as the cell is used, that energy is used up and they are converted into different chemicals with less energy, until the cell runs out.Solar cells get their energy from the sun- sunlight has energy, and what the solar cell does is convert that light energy into electrical energy. So it doesn't use any energy of its own (it does lose electrons, but more electrons come in from the circuit so it never runs out). So as long as a solar cell is exposed to light, it won't run down.In the long term, the sunlight will start to degrade the solar cell so it will eventually stop working, but not because it runs out of energy.
How does light waves travel trillions of miles and not run out of energy?
What do you mean with "run out of energy"? If the energy disappeared, that would violate Conservation of Energy. An object that moves in space has the natural tendency to continue moving at a constant speed - it requires a force to stop it. Something similar happens with electromagnetic waves.
What does Cell respiration mean?
process that releases energy by breaking down glucose and other food molecules in the presence of oxygen
What form of energy must solar energy be changed into in order to run household appliances?
Electric Energy, typically using solar panels.
What is endothermic and exothermic?
Exothermic refers to a reaction that produces heat. When you balance the equation the energy released when new bonds are formed is greater than the energy use when bonds are broken. An endothermic reaction takes in heat as it requires more energy to break its bonds than it has from the bonds it creates.
Are there any differences in price or workout energy output between a Bowflex treadmill versus a regular treadmill?
Yes, the bowflex requires less energy because all you need to do is walk, on the other hand, a regular treadmill requires you to run, and therefore needing much more energy while it burns of less calories.
How does running water use energy?
Sometimes running water uses energy; sometimes, running water MAKES energy. Water running down a river can turn a waterwheel to run a mill, or can run through a turbine and generate electricity. But sometimes when you WANT the water to be moving, we need to FORCE it to move, and that requires energy, in the form of a pump.
