What else can I help you with?
From which reaction is energy harvested to produce ATP?
Energy is harvested to produce ATP from the process of cellular respiration.
What percentage of total energy in the US and worldwide is powered by wind?
In the US, wind power accounts for about 8% of total energy. Worldwide, wind power provides around 4% of total energy. These percentages are growing as the adoption of wind power continues to increase.
Energy harvested from organic molecules is contained in the?
Energy harvested from organic molecules is contained in the chemical bonds within those molecules. This energy is released through the process of cellular respiration, where organic molecules are broken down and the energy is used to produce ATP, the cell's primary energy source.
Is the energy stored in tides potential energy?
No, the tides do not store energy. The energy to be 'harvested' from the tides is kinetic energy (movement energy).
Light energy is harvested by what in the plant?
Light energy is primarily harvested by chlorophyll, a pigment found in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Chlorophyll absorbs sunlight during the process of photosynthesis to convert it into chemical energy in the form of glucose.
What is the main reason energy is harvested in stages in respiration?
The main reason energy is harvested in stages in respiration is to help in successfully breaking up each of the bonds so as to release energy. This energy is usually stored and used for various cell activities.
What fuel is mined from the earth that is almost pure carbon?
Coal, particularly anthracite coal, is almost pure carbon.
Why is solar energy worldwide?
Because there is ww access to the energy source-the Sun.
What is the main energy in monstropolis?
The main energy source in Monstropolis is scream energy, which is harvested by scaring children. It powers the city through the scream extractor at Monsters, Inc.
How is geothermal energy harvested?
Geothermal energy is harvested by drilling holes into bedrock that has sufficient nuclear decay to be warm, filling pipes (or the hole directly) with a liquid that is pumped back to the surface and where a heat exchanger transfers the heat to another medium (liquid).
How can you make a sentence using the word worldwide?
The goal of environmentalists is to encourage the alternate energy sources worldwide.
Which law of thermodynamics applies to percent of harvested energy?
The 2nd law of thermodynamics can yield predictions on the maximum efficiency of a process that seeks to extract useful energy. An example would be the Carnot cycle which gives the maximum percent of energy that can be harvested and turned into useful work as heat moves from a heat source to a heat sink.
