Where does the energy found in atp molecules synthesized in animal cells come from?
ATP is synthesized in all cells: bacterial, plant, animal, fungal, etc.The energy for this synthesis can be obtained by many chemical processes: fermentation, oxidation, etc.The substrate that supplies this energy can be many different chemicals: iron salts, sulfur, carbohydrates, fatty acids, proteins, etc.Plants have the advantage that they can manufacture glucose (a carbohydrate) using photosynthesis, while no other organism can.
What do lithotrophs obtain their energy from?
Most lithotrophs live off geochemical energy derived from hydrogen, iron, magnesium, and sulfur.
Does rusting happen faster if at a higher temperature and if so why?
Rusting is a chemical reaction between iron and oxygen. Specifically, it is the oxidation of iron. Almost chemical reactions occur at a faster rate at higher temperatures because particles have more kinetic energy. Based on the principle that particles must collide to react -----> This increase in kinetic energy means that when particles collide they 1) collide with more energy and 2) have more frequent collisions therefore the rate of reaction increases. The exceptions are exothermic reactions, which tend to slow down when more heat is added.
What is a feature of iron absorption?
Your body automatically increases iron absorption when you have an increased physiological need for iron, for example, in children during rapid growth periods and during pregnancy and lactation. Iron absorption is decreased in people with low stomach acid (hypochlorhydria), a condition that is common in the elderly and those who use antacids frequently. In addition, iron absorption can be decreased by caffeine and by tannins found in coffee and tea. People with healthy iron status need not worry about the impact of tea tannins on their iron absorption. People who are iron deficient, however, should wait at least one hour after a meal before drinking green or black tea. Phosphates found in carbonated soft drinks can also decrease iron absorption. The best way to increase your absorption of iron is to ensure that you consume sufficient vitamin C. A meal that contains about 25 milligrams of vitamin C may as much as double your absorption of iron from that meal. Your body uses copper to help transport iron around your body, and iron-deficiency anemia may sometimes reflect the more basic underlying problem of copper deficiency. Vitamin A may also help improve iron status, and perhaps because of their relationship to stomach acidity levels, so might amino acids and organic acids (like citric acid or malic acid). You may have trouble absorbing iron in the presence of too much calcium (300 milligrams or more). People with high iron requirements might want to avoid taking calcium supplements with meals. Other nutrients that can lower absorption of plant iron include polyphenols (like tannins) and soy proteins. Phytates, found in whole grains, legumes and other seeds, may also decrease iron absorption by forming compounds with the mineral that cannot be absorbed through your digestive tract. Soaking seeds overnight can reduce the phytates in food and increase the absorption of iron. Oxalates, found in spinach and chocolate, may also decrease iron absorption. However, you are still able to absorb helpful amounts of iron from plant foods that contain any or several of these nutrients, and foods like spinach, whole wheat, whole grain rice, soybeans, and other legumes are still very much worth eating, even when iron absorption from these foods is less than 100%. Much of the iron in whole grains is found in the bran and germ. As a result, the milling of grain, which removes the bran and germ, eliminates about 75% of the naturally occurring iron in whole grains. Refined grains are often fortified with iron, but the added iron is less absorbable than the iron that naturally occurs in the grain. Cooking with iron cookware will also add iron to food.
What disease is associated with iron?
Low iron is associated with Anemia. I have low iron (low hemoglobin) levels. It is called being anemic. It is usually fixed with taking iron supplements.
Where do you get iron on Harvest Moon Tree of Tranquility?
To get iron,go to the mine.Sometimes,if your lucky,you can find iron.
Why is hot iron red?
The elements inside the hot iron are energetic and some of that energy is released to its environment. The energy is released as photons at a certain frequency for each temperature of the hot iron. Energy at the frequency you are talking about is interpreted by the mind as the color red. If the hot iron were even hotter it might look like a more pale red. At a higher temperature yet it might look quite white.
How do you harvest diamonds on Minecraft?
In order to collect diamonds in Minecraft, you have to have an iron pickaxe, if you are wondering how to get iron, you have to have a cobblestone pickaxe and find the brownish looking ore then mine it. Once you have it, you need to cook it into iron ingots then craft an iron pickaxe then there you have it.
Is a iron light energy?
no iron is a metal
Where does the energy needed to melt the iron come from?
The energy comes from the heat to melt the iron
How energy is transformed in tha electric flat iron?
1. Electric flat iron -electrical energy===> mechanical energy===>heat energy
What form of energy is iron?
electrical energy
Why can't massive stars generate energy from iron fusion?
Because iron has no more excess binding energy left to release. Iron fusion consumes energy, it does not generate it.
Massive stars cannot generate energy through iron fusion because?
No energy is gained when fusing iron into heavier elements. Heavier elements have a higher potential energy (nuclear energy) than iron.
Why is bronze used befor iron?
The Bronze age occurred before the Iron age because Bronze is easier to harvest from ores than iron. Bronze is also easier to shape than iron.
Why can't a massive star generate energy through iron fusion?
Iron is on the lowest energy level (for nuclear energy), or near it. Converting other elements to iron or nickel will produce energy; the other way round it costs energy.Iron is on the lowest energy level (for nuclear energy), or near it.

Does liquid iron has less thermal energy or more thermal energy?
Iron naturally exists in solid state and heat is required for its liquifaction so liquid iron has high thermal energy.
