What else can I help you with?
What gas is needed for the chemical breakdown of food to release energy?
Oxygen is needed for the chemical breakdown of food to release energy. This process is known as cellular respiration, and it occurs in the mitochondria of our cells. Oxygen acts as the final electron acceptor in the electron transport chain, allowing for the production of ATP, which is the energy currency of the cell.
How do the light reaction help the Calvin cycle?
they provide energy carriers
What role does energy play in the recycling of matter?
Energy is required to drive the processes involved in recycling matter, such as breaking down materials, transportation, and reassembling them into new products. In nature, energy from the sun powers the cycle of matter through processes like photosynthesis and decomposition. In human-made recycling systems, energy is needed for collection, sorting, transportation, and processing of materials.
Does micronutrients provide the energy that your body uses?
No. Micronutrients are things you need only in tiny amounts (like cobalt or cyanide) , and have no role in energy production EXCEPT that some are needed to allow that energy to be produced at all.
Why cellular respirations important to eukaryotic cells?
It provides the energy cells need to survive.
What is the mitochondria in the sperm used for?
Mitochondria are located in the tail of the sperm. They provide the sperm with that whip like energy to move. They can give the energy to the sperm because mitochondria are the "powerhouse" of the cell.
Why do sperm have mitochondria in the midpoint?
Mitochondria are organelles that produce energy. If the "midpoint" of a sperm is where the flagellum attaches to the head of the sperm, then the mictochondria are there to provide energy needed to move the flagellum, therefor moving the sperm.
Why do plant cells carry mitochondria?
Plant cells are living.So they want energy.Mitochondria provide energy needed.
What organelle is most abundant in the sperm cell?
Mitochondria. It takes a lot of energy to swim as far as they have to.
What materials do the mitochondria consume?
Main raw material is glucose.Also oxygen is needed
What determines where energy production will continue into the mitochondria?
The presence of oxygen. Oxygen is needed for mitochondria
How do mitochondria contribute to the creation of proteins within the cell?
Mitochondria provide the energy needed for protein synthesis by producing ATP through cellular respiration. This energy is essential for the process of translation, where ribosomes use mRNA to assemble amino acids into proteins.
What does mitochondria do to the plant?
It is same as the animals.It produce energy needed.
Do plants have a mitochondria in there cells?
Of course they have. They are needed to produce energy
What everyday object would represent mitochondria?
It can be compared to a power house.It generates enery in cell.
What is mitochondria like if a cell is like a factory?
The synthesis site of ATP. This is the energy currency of the cell so the job of the mitochondria could be said to be the cell's battery.
What is the nick name for mitochondria?
It is considered as powerhouse of the cell.It generates energy needed for cell
