Cellular respiration can be described as the conversion of energy into what?
stored in food molecules to energy stored in ATP
What is the role of ATP in coupled reaction?
A What_is_the_role_of_ATP_in_coupled_reactioncompound for cell in form of energy currency. Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) are able to be stored as energy within cells for later use.
What are the organeles within cells where energy is released from nutrient molecules?
The mitochondria release energy from nutrient molecules and transform the energy into a usable form. They are one of the most important organelle in the cell.
Which life function is primarily involved in the conversion of the energy stored in organic molecules to a form directly usable by a cell?
Cellular respiration is the life function involved in changing the energy stored in food to a more useful form for the cells to use.
Energy for use in cells is stored in the form of?
The energy in the food is stored in the form of chemical bonds. When the catabolic reactions occur nutrient molecules like glucose are broken down into smaller molecules and the energy thus released due to the breaking of chemical pond is conserved in the form of ATP. The most classical reaction that occurs is catabolic oxidation of glucose during respiration. Glucose contains 5 single bonds among six carbons that is broken down into six CO2 molecules and the released energy is stored in 38 ATPs. C6H12O6 + 6 O2 → 6 CO2 + 6 H2O + 38 ATP Similar kinds of reactions occur with fat molecules also but with different stoichiometry and the end result is same. The energy released by the breaking of bonds is reserved in the form of ATP.
Chemical energy is stored in the what of molecules?
Chemical energy is stored in form of bonds
In what form do organisms store energy?
Organisms primarily store energy in the form of chemical bonds. This energy is stored in molecules such as ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and carbohydrates like glucose. When needed, these molecules can be broken down and the energy stored in their bonds can be released and used by the organism.
What is stored in a fossil fuel and released in the form of kinetic energy when burned.?
Potential energy, which is stored as chemical bonds in the hydrocarbon molecules.
What is stored in a fossil fuel and released in the form of kinetic energy when burned?
Potential energy, which is stored as chemical bonds in the hydrocarbon molecules.
Which molecule do plants use to store extra glucose?
Glucose can be stored in plants in several ways. In some plants , the glucose molecules join to one another to form starch molecules. Some plants convert glucose to fructose and the energy is stored in this form. In other plants, fructose combines with glucose to form sucrose. The energy is stored in carbohydrates in this form. Plant cells obtain energy for their activities from these molecules.
What energy does cellular respiration convert?
It form chemical energy i.e. ATP (Adenosine Tri-phosphate)
Cellular respiration can be described as the conversion of energy into what?
stored in food molecules to energy stored in ATP
Why is starch found in plants?
Glucose for energy is stored as starch in plants. The glucose molecules join up to form starch molecules.
In a dry battery cell which form of energy is converted to electrical energy?
The energy is stored in the chemical bonds of molecules and can be released by a chemical reaction.
What do plants use the energy stored in glucose for?
They use it to make reactions with CO2 molecules to form the carbohydrates.
How does a piece of coal contain potential energy?
Before it is burned there is stored energy within it, and once it is burned the energy within it is released by the fire to form heat, light, and chemical energy.
What is the energy located in the bonds of food molecules?
The location of energy release from food molecules is in the mitochondria of the cell. The process in which energy is released from food molecules is known as cellular respiration.
