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.
The energy stored in the chemical bonds of a carbohydrate molecule is?
Potential energy
What happens when chemical reactions break down glucose molecules into simpler substances and trap their stored energy in ATP?
It isn't. ATP is a considerably larger molecule than glucose. Although glucose is not literally broken down into ATP, the energy from the glucose molecule is transferred to ATP molecules. The energy in each ATP moelcule is much less than in a glucose molecule, and is a more convenient amount for the cell to use. Just think how a small denomination bill (£ or $) can be more convenient than a large one for small transactions.
Do glucose molecule have potential energy?
The energy in a glucose molecule is stored in the bonds between the atoms.
Where is potential energy stored in a molecule?
Potential energy is stored in the nucleus or in the chemical bonds
When a molecule of glucose is broken down b y aerobic respiration the energy stored in the glucose gets transferred to?
The energy stored in the glucose molecule gets transferred to molecules of ATP.
Compare the amount of energy stored by ATP and glucose.?
One molecule of glucose stores 90 times the amount of chemical energy than one molecule of ATP.
Where in the molecules is the energy stored?
It's on the PAK ! I know you're from Kerr. And it is stored in Glucose molecule.
Where is the energy in a glucose molecule stored?
The energy in a glucose molecule is stored in the bonds between the atoms.
What molecule determines energy storage in cellular respiration?
Energy in glucose is released. That energy is stored in ATP
How is energy stored in respiration?
Chemical energy is stored in form of bonds
Where is the energy in pyruvate molecules stored?
It's on the PAK ! I know you're from Kerr. And it is stored in Glucose molecule.
Where is the energy in a glucose moleclue stored?
It isn't stored in any specific place of the molecule. The chemical potential energy is the result of a possible "gain" of energy when the atoms in a glucose molecule combine with other atoms. Thus, the glucose and the other atoms, separately, are at a "higher energy level".
Would the formation of ATP molecules from glucose oxidation be an example of energy transformation or conversion?
Yes. It is a good example of energy transformation or conversion. In this energy stored in glucose molecule is released in small pockets. And stored in 38 ATP molecules. Here ADP molecule get converted into ATP molecule. When energy is required, ATP molecule is reconverted into ADP molecule.
Where is the energy from a glucose molecule stored?
The energy released from cellular respiration of glucose is temporarily stored in the ATP molecules. ATP stands for Adenosine Triphosphate and these molecules can be used to do work in the cell.
Does a molecule of starch have more stored energy than a glucose molecule and why?
yes - starch is a larger molecule (with more bonds holding atoms together, so it has more energy) because it is a polymer of glucose. Glucose is one ring of carbons and starch is a chain of these.
What is the energy storing molecule created during photosynthesis?
during synthesis, ATP, excess get's stored as glucose. glucose store as starch
