Which molecule is best described as energy rich because the amount of energy that can be stored in it and released from it?
Adenosine triphosphate, ATP
What is stored by the body as energy reserves?
Energy is stored for later use by converting it to a compound that can be stored. These are glycogen and humans and starch in plants. In humans, insulin is produced by the pancreas which converts glucose (which can't be stored) into glycogen (which can be stored) which is stored in the liver. to convert the glycogen back to glucose when energy is needed the pancreas produces glucagon, this then converts the glycogen to glucose which is ready to be used by the body for energy.
Why energy stored in green plants is classified as potential energy?
The energy stored in plants is classified as potential energy because they convert light energy into chemical potential energy stored in glucose.
Where is the energy in a glucose molecule stored?
The energy in a glucose molecule is stored in the bonds between the atoms.
Does glucose store energy?
After the energy from sunlight, glucose is probably the most important molecule on earth. In photosynthesis, energy from sunlight is converted into chemical energy stored in the chemical bonds of glucose. But sunlight remains the ultimate source of energy for almost all species on the earth.
Compare the energy stored in a lipid to the energy stored in a carbohydrate?
the amount of energy is double in lipids as compared to carbohydrtes
Where is glucose stored in the body?
In the human body, glucose is stored in the cells. The function of the stored glucose is the secondary energy storage. The primary energy is stored in the adipose tissue.
Energy is stored within a cell and the substance is called what?
Energy of glucose is released. This energy is stored in ATP
What is the stored energy that all animals use?
glucose is the stored energy in animals
When photosynthesis is complete where is the energy stored?
Energy of sunlight is used. It is stored in glucose
How is electromagnetic energy from the sun captured stored and finally converted into energy in glucose?
how is elctromagnetic energy from the sun captured stored and finally converted into energy in glucose
How stored energy in glucose is release in respiration?
that was stored for a respiration...
Where is the energy stored that is released by the mitochondria?
Energy of glucose is stored in ATPs.Energy stored between phosphate bonds.
Where is glucose stored after plant plant has made glucose during photosynthesis?
Glucose is typically stored in starch molecules after photosynthesis. A large amount of glucose will make its way to the roots to be stored in starch nodules there. Glucose is also an essential part of plant growth. It provides energy but also forms the cellulose needed for cell walls.
What releases energy that is stored in glucose?
The process of cellular respiration extracts the energy found in glucose.
Where is energy in a glucose stored?
between bonds
Where is energy stored in bonds of glucose?
water
