Which contains more energy one molecule of nadp or one molecule of nadp h?
NADPH is more unstable and will release energy to become NADP+ because there is a high amount of negative charge concentrated in this small molecule, thus it will reduce or donate electrons spontaneously or just lose the electrons to fuel an enzymatic reaction.
The energy stored in the chemical bonds of a carbohydrate molecule is?
Potential energy
What energy from foods is not used directly it is stored in a high energy molecule called?
The high energy molecule is called ATP or Adenesine Tri Phosphate which is produced when glucose is broken down.
Where does the electron transport chain get high energy electrons that are passed down the chains?
High-energy electrons from NADH and FADH2 are passed along the electron transport chain
High energy molecule used by cells?
ATP (adenine triphosphate)
What does nadph carry?
they carry high energy electrons.
What high-energy molecule do excited electrons generate?
ATP
Which molecule are high-energy electrons from glycolysis and the Krebs cycle ultimately transferred to?
NADH
What is the advantage of living systems having a molecule such as ATP?
ATP is a molecule that carries energy somewhat like a battery carries energy. It has 3 phosphate groups, the last one has a high energy bond which is broken whe energy is needed to drive metabolic systems.
What is a carrier molecules?
A carrier molecule is a compound that can accept a pair of high energy electrons and transfer them along with most their energy to another molecule. Straight out of the 9th grade textbook
What happens chemically when chlorophyll absorbs light energy?
When chlorophyll absorbs light, much of the energy is transferred directly to electrons in the chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy levels of these electrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesis work
How do electrons help in transfer of heat energy?
when a substance is heated,the molecules in that substance get heat energy. we know that all of the molecule in the substance having electrons. when substance is heated. electrons becoming high energetic.and they move faster and also energy will propagate though out the substance
What is chlorophyll and what is it's role in photosynthesis?
Chlorophyll is a molecule found in chloroplast. When chlorophyll absorbs light, much of the energy is transferred directly to electrons in the chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy levels of these electrons. These high energy electrons make photosynthesis work.
Why do high-energy electrons need carrier molecules?
The energy in light raises some of the electrons in chlorophyll to higher energy levels. These high-energy electrons are used in photosynthesis. Electron carriers are used to transport the electrons from chlorophyll to other molecules during photosynthesis.
Explain what happens when sunlight hits a chlorophyll molecule?
As the sunlight hits the chlorophyll molecules sunlight is absorbed by a molecule of chlorophyll electrons in the molecule interact with photons of light and are raised to a higher energy level. The electrons are passed from one molecule to another in an electron transport chain producing ATP and NADPH. In case you don't know ATP is what cells mainly use for energy and NADPH is use as an electron carrier.Light energy is transferred to the electrons inthe chlorophyll molecule, raising the energy of theseelectrons. These high-energy electrons make photosynthesiswork.100% correct answer. Got it from answer book :D. You might want to change some words though since I got it straight from answer book...Its 9th grade biology btw
What is NAD?
NAD+ is an electron carrier molecule that helps pass energy from glucose to other pathways in a cell by taking high-energy electrons and holding on to them until they can be transferred to other molecules.
Photosynthesis carrier molecules?
A carrier molecule is a compound that can accept a pair of high energy electrons and transfer them to another molecule. The carrier molecule in photosynthesis is NADP or the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate.
