What does not require energy obtained from pre-formed organic molecules?
Autotrophs
What are similarities between autotrophs and Heterotrophs?
Similarities: 1. both have life 2.need air, water and sunlight for survival 3. require organic molecules(food) for metabolism
What about combustion reaction makes them different from either synthesis or decomposition reaction?
The short answer is combustion reactions are a subset of synthesis reactions that require one of the reactants to be oxygen. Common combustion of organic molecules results in the formation of CO2 . However, it is not required that combustion be limited to organic molecules. They are different from decomposition reactions in the same way synthesis is the opposite of decomposition.
Where are carbohydrates lipids and proteins broke down in the GI tract?
Carbohydrates and proteins are digested in the stomach. Carbs require several enzymes to be digested, such as the enzyme salivary amylase (secreted in the mouth); digestion ultimately occurs at the level of the stomach. Proteins are also digested in the stomach, but require a general class of enzymes called proteases in order to be digested. Lipids are digested in the duodenum, the first portion of the small intestine. The secretion of lipase enzymes is necessary to complete this task.
What are pathways that require energy to combine molecules together called?
Anabolic pathways require energy to combine simple molecules into more complex ones.
Do all fungi require organic material for growth?
Yes
Why does food to be digested?
To change food to a form that can be used by the body. Some require more digestion, some less.
Making and breaking molecules in the body require the aid of?
energy
How does carbon become of organic molecules?
In living organisms, carbon fixation (incorporation of atmospheric inorganic carbon dioxide into organic compounds) is carried out by certain microbes and most plants and the other organisms feed on plants to acquire their organic compounds. The process of carbon fixation is called photosynthesis and it's driven by sun light and catalyzed by enzymes. In organic chemistry labs, chemists have found ways to either create organic molecules from inorganic ones or add carbon onto preexisting organic molecules, though these processes require very strigent reaction conditions that are different from those in living organisms, mostly because we cannot make use of enzymes the same way as living organisms do. The earliest experiments involved reacting carbon dioxide and ammonia by adding an electrical current, making urea as the product. Current organic chemstry techniques have countless ways to manipulate organic compounds and it will be futile to try to list even a fraction of the techniques. Follow the link below for a Wikipedia page that has links to a large number of possible organic chemistry reactions.
In glycolysis the first few steps require energy from two ATP molecules. The net gain of ATP molecules at the end of this pathway is?
2 ATP molecules
Does a medium need molecules?
Mediums are made of molecules. Actually, we're all made of molecules whether we are mediums or not. We require molecules to breath, to drink, to eat, and to exist. Psychic ability has no bearing on one's need for molecules.
Are grapes good on an empty stomach?
I have read that grapes require extra saliva and fluid to be digested or they can cause cramps. I don't know if that helps at all but maybe that has something to do with an empty stomach.
