Where is the energy on a glucose molecule stored?

The energy in a glucose molecule is stored in the chemical bonds between its carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. When these bonds are broken through processes like cellular respiration, energy is released for the cell to use.


What cell does glucose partly break down in?

The Mitochondria in a cell breaks down the Glucose


How does glucose help you survive?

C6H12O6 + 6O2 --> 6CO2 + 6H2O ( + the energy currency of the cell, ATP synthesis ) This is the equation of cellular respiration where glucose is oxidized and oxygen reduced while 36 ATP are synthesized from every molecule of glucose. ATP does the cell's work and with this energy locked in the bonds of the ATP molecule you could not live a second.


Sugar molecule that provides the cell with energy?

What is glucose called after it enters the cell?

it breaks down in the mitochondra


There is a need for glucose inside a cell but the glucose molecule is too large to pass through the cell membrane. How does the cell solve this problem?

It transports the glucose through transport proteins.


What organelle breaks down cell can compounds into small particles that the cell can use?

The mitochondria breaks down chemical bonds the cell can use for energy


What is a molecule used by glucose as a piggyback into and out of the cell in the process of active transport?

The glucose transporter is a membrane bound protein that binds to glucose and mediates it's transport into or out of the cell.


If the concentration of glucose in the water outside the cell is higher than the concentration inside the cell what will happen?

Water will move out of the cell. Glucose will not move into the cell without the help of a helper molecule. Glucose molecules will diffuse into the cell.(APEX)

Is pyruvate a cell?

No, pyruvate is a molecule produced from the breakdown of glucose during glycolysis.


How many ATP molecules can the cell produce from a single molecule of glucose through the glycolysis?

The cell can produce a net gain of 2 ATP molecules from a single molecule of glucose through the process of glycolysis. This occurs during the conversion of glucose to pyruvate.
