When a cell uses chemical energy to perform work it uses the energy released from?

the breakdown of ATP molecules. ATP is considered the energy currency of the cell and provides the energy needed for various cellular processes. When ATP is hydrolyzed, it releases energy that can be used by the cell to perform work.


Why do you associate ATP with energy?

Because Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is the engergy source each cell uses to carry out their functions. So think of a cell like a rechargeable battery flashlight. In order for the light to work, it needs power from the battery. So the cell (lightbult) functions by the ATP (battery) it creates via Cellular Respiration or Glycolysis (Creating ATP without oxygen. lactic acid is the byproduct)


Fermentation occurs when a cell does not get enough what?

Fermentation occurs when a cell does not get enough oxygen to carry out aerobic respiration. Instead, the cell uses anaerobic pathways to produce energy in the form of ATP.


Mitochondria stores and release the a cell needs to carry out the life process?

Mitochondria is known as the power house of the cell because the energy required for various chemical activities is created and stored by it in the form of ATP molecules.ATP is known as the energy currency of the cell.The body uses energy stored in ATP for making new chemical compounds and for mechanical work.


What a cell use in respiration?

The mitochondria uses ATP for cellular respiration.


When the energy of sugar is released it is converted to a chemical abbreviated what that is readily abailable to carry out work inside the cell?

The energy of sugar is converted to ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is a chemical energy carrier that is readily available to fuel cellular processes and perform work within the cell. ATP is considered the energy currency of the cell due to its role in powering various biological reactions.


What are some of the uses of ATP?

It acts as the supplement of energy for the cell. That's why its called the "Energy Currency of the Cell".


What uses the mitochondria?

Mitochondria use the sugar glucose to change ADP into ATP. ATP is what produces energy the cell needs.


What for ATP stand?

Adenosine triphosphate (or ATP) is a molecule that a cell uses to extract and store energy from other molecules such as carbohydrates.


What process use a transport vesicles to take in molecules for cell and requiere energy?

Endocytosis is the process that uses transport vesicles to take in molecules for the cell. It requires energy in the form of ATP to carry out the engulfing of substances by the cell membrane and their transport into the cytoplasm.


What is the function for the mitochondria in the plant cell?

That is to carry out aerobic respiration. It generates ATP for energy


Which cell organelle provides the majority of ATP needed to carry out metabolic reactions?

Mitochondrion
