What part of cell releases energy from nutrients?
The Mitochondria is the cell part that releases energy.
Which organelle contains the photosynthetic pigments?
Mostly the choloroplasts which contains chlorophyll, but chromatin, another photosynthetic pigment is stored in the chromoplasts.
Compare and contrast ATP and ADP?
The purpose of ATP is to store energy. ATP stands for adenosine tri-phosphate, and the energy is mostly stored in the third phosphate bond. ATP is used by cells 24/7 as a form of energy. The purpose of ADP is to have to potential to store energy. ADP stands for adenosine di-phosphate, and when another phosphate is added onto the molecule it is called ATP and will store energy. When ATP releases energy the third phosphate comes off and it becomes ADP.
What does cellular respiration use and make?
Cellular respiration is a chemical reaction where glucose and oxygen are broken down into carbon dioxide, water and heat energy. This is the energy that our body's need to survive. This reaction takes place in a cell called the mitochondria, often found in muscles
What cell is the Golgi body in?
bothThey are in eukariyotic cells. They are absent on prokariyotic cells
What is an organelles that releases stored energy which comes mostly from sugars?
The organelle that releases stored energy which comes mostly from sugars is the mitochondrion. It is called the powerhouse of a cell.
Compare and contrast the energy processing organelle?
To mostly compare the energy processing organelle, you can compare using size.
How is energy stored in natural gases and how is that energy released?
Natural gas is mostly methane, CH4, which is a hydrocarbon. When it burns with oxygen it releases thermal energy.
What structure is found mostly in green plant cell but not in animal cells?
The organelle called a chloroplast.
What structure is found in mostly green plant cell but not in animal cells?
The organelle called a chloroplast.
What part of cell releases energy from nutrients?
The Mitochondria is the cell part that releases energy.
Energy is produce in organelles called?
Energy is produced in organelles called mitochondria. The mitochondria creates energy in the form of ATP. The mitochondria can move, change shape, and divide of its own accord.
What is meant by renewable energy?
what happens when a fuel is burnt?A. Gasoline (or any petroleum fuel) is mostly carbon that when burned releases energy from the form of heat energy makes the engine run and allows objects to move
Does nuclear or coal energy mostly contribute to the climate change?
Coal energy releases greenhouse gases when burnt, causing global warming. Nuclear power has very little effect on climate change.
Where does the nuclear enengy come from?
It comes from the fission of certain nuclei, mostly U235 and Pu239. Every fission of a nucleus of an atom of these materials releases a certain amount of energy as heat.
What is the thermal energy of particles in a substance?
Mostly the kinetic energy of particles due to heating is called thermal energy Temperature is a measure of heat
Where do photosynthesis mostly occur?
Mostly in plants where they take oxygen and turn it into food which releases carbon dioxide.
