1. the energy is released gradually, which allows a significant amount of the released energy to be conserved for the cell to use rather than being lost as heat.

2. additionally, the process generates intermediate compounds into the metabolic pathways (divert surplus intermediate compounds into the metabolic pathways that best meet the organism's constantly changing needs)

What are genes What are their function?

In essence, genes code for amino acids which code for proteins. These proteins then act as enzymes and control metabolic pathways that determine a particular characteristic. The metabolic pathway works by using the products from each enzyme as the substrate for the next pathway.


Name the metabolic pathway of photosynthesis in which carbon dioxide is converted into glucose using ATP?

The Calvin cycle, or the light independent reaction.


Will starch ferment better than glucose?

It depends a little on yeast type, but they are both about the same. In the presence of one or the other, fermentation will take about the same time. In the presence of both, the glucose will be fermented first. Fructose and glucose are consumed by different metabolic pathways. When glucose is present the other pathways are suppressed.

What is the general features of allosteric regulation using the feedback inhibition?

enzymes situated at key steps in metabolic pathways are modulated by allosteric effectors these effectors are usually produced elsewhere in the pathway effectors may be feed-forward activators or feedback inhibitors kinetics are sigmoid ("S-shaped")


Could glucose get separated from a magnet?

Glucose is not a metal and can not be separated using a magnet.


Why does the food and oxygen go to all your cells in your body?

Because glucose, which all food is eventually broken down into, is needed in the respiration cycle (using oxygen), also called the Krebs Cycle, in cells to convert the chemical energy of the glucose molecules into ATP, which the cells can then use for metabolic activities. Without glucose (food) and O2 (a necessary catalyst in the respiration cycle), cells would have no chemical energy and would die.
