When glucose is used as the energy source the largest amount of ATP is produced?
When glucose is used as the energy source the largest amount of ATP is produced during complete oxidative respiration by utilizing the efficiencies of the electron transport chain. Other metabolic pathways like fermentation capture only a small fraction of potential energy compared to oxidative respiration.
What step of respiration produces the most energy for the organism?
electron transport chain?
A dog chasing a rabbit needs energy from the food it has eaten which process makes the usable energy for the dog?
the electron transport chain
What is a transfer of energy through organisms?
the food chain
How does energy enter this food chain?
It originates from the sun and enters the food chain when plants absorb it for photosynethis.
What form of energy is represented by a bicycle chain?
The chain itself only has chemical energy equal its weight and material. Then it'll have a bit of potential energy depending on where it's kept. If it's turning it'll have a bit of kinetic energy as well.
If a roller coaster car is pulled by a chain at the beginning of the ride what kind of energy is present at this point?
The motor that drives the chain is being fuelled with electrical energy, which it converts into kinetic energy to move the chain. The chain supplies the rollercoaster carriage with kinetic energy and (hence why its harder to pull something up a slope) gravitational-potential energy. When the chain releases the carriage, and it speeds down the track, it converts its GPE into kinetic energy and thermal/sound wastes.
How potential and kinetic energy have been used by the planet and living organisms?
Potential energy and Kinetic energy are used by the planet by our orbit. Earth has Gravitational potential energy and so do the other planets. When a bigger object with a gravitational field comes close to a planet or rock it is pulled into the field. The planet keeps wanting to go straight, but the field keeps it in orbit. Therefore the planet is always using potential and kinetic energy to stay in orbit. EDIT: Potential is the energy inside matter when it is not moving, and kinetic is inside when it is moving. For example; if a boulder is sitting on a cliff, it is potential. Then it falls and goes down. It is moving, so it is not kinetic. Then it stops moving, and it is potential again. So the Earth is moving, using the kinetic energy. Some of the life forms(like a person sitting doing nothing) on Earth are potential. The energy flow through living organisms starts with sunlight and photosynthesis, then travels through the food chain in bite sized chunks. Primary producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, and decomposers are all part of the food chain.
How is riding a bike kinetic energy?
The motorcycle's gasoline is potential energy. The energy is released as a chemical reaction (chemical energy) and converted to heat (heat energy). It then becomes converted to kinetic energy with the movement in the engine, and subsequent movement of the motorcycle.
How does a roller coaster demonstrate potential and kinetic energy in action?
there is a lot of potential energy right before a roller coaster decreases in elevation. potential energy is at its highest on a roller coaster when the roller coaster is at its highest point. when it drops down it uses kinetic energy.
How is clock tower movement possible without electricity?
The source of energy is the hanging weight(s) in the tower....or a wound spring if a more modern mechanism is used. Think of a Grandfather Clock. It is "wound" by pulling on a chain which raises the hanging weight(s) in the body of the clock. The force of gravity pulling on the weights provides the energy to run the clock. Note however, that you actually input the energy initially, when you pulled on the chain to raise the weight. That rise increased the weight's Potential Energy, which is then slowly converted back to Kinetic Energy as the weight slowly is lowered by the Clockwork mechanism.
Jill is getting ready to push little Frank in his swing She pulls Frank back as high as she can and then releases the swing What is the initial transfer of energy that accelerates the swing when s?
Potential energy mostly transferring to kinetic energy (some of the energy will also dissipate as heat from friction - air friction, friction where the ends of the chain or rope is rubbing against whatever it is attached to, etc.) The potential energy comes from Jill raising Frank in the gravitational field of the earth.
What is the energy that cells make and use called?

What do fission of uranium produce?
Uranium fission creates a chain reaction that initiates a chain reaction that grows exponentially into a massive conversion of the potential energy inside the uranium atom into kinetic energy in the form of an explosion - a nuclear explosion. These are the bombs that ended WW2. Today we can split H atoms, which release significantly more energy.
What are the two energy carrier molecules used to transfer energy from the citric acid cycle to the electron transport chain?
the kenitic energy and the potential energy

Mechanical energy is the sum of what type of energy and potential energy?
It is energy held in reserve, not being used but available depending on some other action. It could be gravitational, due to a weight being raised to a high position, or it could be stored in elastic, in a model airplane for example. It could be energy stored in a gas at high pressure, which could do work if released. You could say that fuels such as fossil fuels or even uranium have potential energy, because it just requires some circumstance such as ignition or a nuclear chain reaction to release the energy, which would otherwise stay locked up in the fuel
