The first step in cellular respiration that splits a molecule of glucose to release energy is called?
The first step in cellular respiration that splits a molecule of glucose to release energy is glycolysis. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell and converts one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP in the process.
Explain why ATP molecule splits?
ATP contains three phosphate groups. The third phosphate group (the outermost one) is called the alpha phosphate. The breaking of this phosphate bond is accompanied by the release of a large amount of energy which can be used to drive key steps in metabolic reactions. With the removal of alpha phosphate, the remainder molecule is ADP
What is the first stage in cellular respiration that splits a molecule of glucose to release energy?
The first stage in cellular respiration that splits a molecule of glucose to release energy is glycolysis. Glycolysis occurs in the cytoplasm and involves the breakdown of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate, producing a small amount of ATP and NADH in the process.
Is there a net release of energy when an element splits?
Yes, this is the source of power in a nuclear power plant
What factor affects the the change in temperature when a salt is dissolved in water?
The binding energy of the molecule compared to the binding energy of the ions it splits into when it is dissolved determines the change in heat of the water. The stronger a molecule is bound, the higher its binding energy and the more heat is needed to break it apart, which cools the water.
What is the definition for nuclear fission?
A nuclear reaction in which a heavy nucleus splits spontaneously or on impact with another particle, with the release of energy.
What processes a molecule splits releasing neutrons and energy?
In nuclear fission it is the nucleus of the atom that splits, not a molecule, and this releases neutrons and energy. Reactions at the molecule level are termed chemical reactions, not nuclear, and these chemical reactions involve whole atoms and molecules.
What is added to each side of the DNA ladder After the molecule splits?
complementary nucleotides
When DNA is copied the molecule splits open along the?
When DNA is copied, the double helix molecule splits open along the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs. This separation allows each strand to serve as a template for the creation of a new complementary strand. This process is known as DNA replication.
When you break a atom is energy formed?
Breaking an atom does release energy in a process called nuclear fission, where the nucleus splits into smaller parts. This energy release is a fundamental principle behind nuclear power plants and nuclear weapons.
How do babies get conjoined?
Sometimes an embryo splits after fertilization into two. This makes identical twins. When the embryo splits, but remains attached to the other, you get conjoined twins.
What energy source comes from what happens when an atom splits?
When an atom splits, its called fission Heat comes from fission
