During cellular respiration, what energy transformation occurs
energy is converted from one form of chemical energy ( in chemical bonds of glucose) to another form of chemical energy ( in the chemical bonds of ATP)... this conversion takes place in order to make a form of energy that the cells can use
Review: Which biomolecule is ATP related to and explain
ATP is related to nucleic acids... it is a modified nucleotide... most nucleotides have a nitrogen base, a sugar and a phosphate..ATP has a tail of 3 phosphates (adenosine TRIPHOSPHATE)
What are the organisms that make their own food to use as energy
Autotrophs
How does energy stored in the glucose produced by photosynthesis get transferred to other organisms
energy can be transferred to other organisms when the molecules are consumed as food
True or False.... Both ATP and ADP can provide energy for organisms
TRUE... most of the energy reactions in a cell involve ATP and ADP.... there is an AMP but it really doesn't have much energy
Name four forms of energy... remember that energy can be converted to other forms of energy)
light energy, mechanical energy, thermal energy, chemical energy
Which metabolic process STORES ENERGY,,, Which RELEASES ENERGY and together they allow energy to flow continuously in the biosphere
Photosynthesis stores energy.... Cellular Respiration releases energy
What happens as energy is converted from one form to another
there is always a loss of usable energy. The energy that is "LOST" is generally lost as heat
What does photosynthesis produce that is USED by aerobic cellular respiration
glucose and oxygen
Directly or indirectly nearly all the energy for life comes from
