Why are mitochondria called the powers houses of cell?
They produce energy for the cell to do processes. Depending on the cell type, these processes vary, but most cells use energy for bacteria defense.
How do plants produce energy?
The plants produce energy with a function called photosynthesis. They use sunlight to make energy.
Photosynthetic bacteria obtain energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules?
Bacteria that obtain their energy by removing electrons from inorganic molecules, rather than obtaining energy from the sun, are called chemoautotrophic. In general, organisms, that obtain their energy from sunlight are called photoautotrophs.
How does a strictly fermentative bacterium produce energy?
Strictly fermentative bacteria produce ATP, but only through glycolysis.
Does chemosynthetic bacteria need sunlight to grow?
Chemosynthetic bacteria does not require sunlight to live and derives the nutrients from nonfood sources. Examples of chemosynthetic bacteria are lactobacillus and streptococcus.
What are bacteria that can produce their food without using the suns energy called?
Chemoautotrophic
What are methanogenic bacteria and how do they produce methane?
NO bacteria are methanogenic, archaea are methanogenic. And they produce it through a process called chemolithoautotrophy, where they break down the inorganic molecules into energy.
When a escherichia coli can produce energy without oxygen what is that called?
Anaerobic
What are bacteria called that can make their own food without using the Suns energy?
Chemo-synthesizers.
Why bacteria produce toxins?
Bacteria produce toxins as a byproduct. They are formed when the bacteria produce energy for themselves by changing one substance into another, and in some cases, there are byproducts, some of which can be toxins.
Why are mitochondria called the powers houses of cell?
They produce energy for the cell to do processes. Depending on the cell type, these processes vary, but most cells use energy for bacteria defense.
What are ways bacteria gain energy?
Bacteria can gain energy through processes like photosynthesis (using light to create energy), chemosynthesis (using inorganic compounds to create energy), and fermentation (breaking down organic compounds without oxygen). These processes allow bacteria to produce ATP, the cell's energy currency, to carry out essential functions.
What are the chemicals that bacteria use to produce and store energy?
photosynthesis
How do plants produce energy?
The plants produce energy with a function called photosynthesis. They use sunlight to make energy.
The proccess by which plants and some bacteria use the energy from sunlight to produce sugar?
photosynthesis
The process by which plants and some bacteria use the energy from sunlight to produce suger?
photosynthesis.
Where does bacteria get energy?
By feeding on other organisms. Some bacterias are also photosynthetic and are able to produce energy using sunlight. Others are also chemotrophic and are able to produce energy using inorganic chemicals.
