Active Transport
No, chemiosmosis does not expend energy. Instead, it utilizes the energy stored in the form of a proton gradient to drive ATP synthesis in processes such as oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria or photosynthesis in chloroplasts.
Yes, active transport requires the cell to expend energy in the form of ATP in order to move molecules against their concentration gradient. This process allows the cell to maintain proper concentrations of molecules inside and outside the cell.
The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed. When we eat food, we consume a certain amount of energy (calories) that is then used by our body for various functions. If we consume more calories than we expend, the excess is stored as fat, whereas if we consume fewer calories than we expend, we lose weight as our body uses stored energy.
To calculate how long you need to exercise to expend 100 kcal at an energy rate of 270 W, first convert 100 kcal to Joules (1 calorie = 4.184 J), then divide the energy in Joules by the power in Watts to find the time in seconds. Finally, convert the time from seconds to minutes. In this case, you would need to exercise for approximately 44.3 seconds to expend 100 kcal at an energy rate of 270 W.
Yes, engulfing requires energy because the amoeba must expend energy to rearrange its cytoplasm and membrane to surround and engulf the food particle. This process involves active transport mechanisms to move the engulfed material inside the cell.
No, chemiosmosis does not expend energy. Instead, it utilizes the energy stored in the form of a proton gradient to drive ATP synthesis in processes such as oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria or photosynthesis in chloroplasts.
Yes ^that's not true. Actually work is not the rate at which you expend energy.
Expend is a verb which means to use up or consume. Sedentary office workers do not expend much physical energy on the job.
Try not to expend all of your energy during the early laps [of a race].
Because you constantly expend energy.
When you expend the energy to complete that project.
An energy feed is a food source that gives extra energy to those who eat it, allowing them to expend more energy when needed.
Facilitated diffusion.

It doesn't require the cell to expend energy.
No - despite its representation as such in the Green Lantern comics, Fear is NOT an energy. It is an emotion that can cause someone to expend energy however.
Generally, cells derive their energy from ATP (in their phosphate bond).
