SVETLANKA909090 [29]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

From food

Explanation:

Food energy is a chemical energy used by humans through the process of cellular respiration. Food contain macromolecules such as lipids, proteins, carbohydrates, water, vitamins, and minerals that are necessary for the human metabolism and they are broken down and used by the series of metabolic steps (glycolysis, Krebs  cycle, electront transport chain and oxidative phosphorilation). Digested macromolecules should be used either as a source of energy or as building blocks for the cell.

At the end of catabolic processes within an organism food energy is transformed into energy usable by the cell-ATP.

What substance would need to be added in order to reverse the reaction?
Korvikt [17]
The substance that would be added in order to reverse the reaction would be any substance that is found in the product side. Adding a substance that tends to be a product will shift the equilibrium of the system and will allow the reaction to produce the substances that is found in the reactant side.

How does carbon dioxide affect the ecosystem
FrozenT [24]

As a greenhouse gas that absorbs heat, CO2 raises the temperature of the atmosphere. We refer to this as global warming. The glaciers will melt more quickly as the world's temperature rises, raising sea levels and bringing on disaster. More power is consumed for air conditioning as the temperature rises, which further raises the air's CO2 level.

Since coal is the primary fuel utilized in the creation of power. This creates a vicious cycle.
