Answer: 5. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) consists of an adenosine molecule bonded to three phophate groups in a row. In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP. This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work. Now its back to being ADP and is ready to store the energy from respiration by bonding with a 3rd phosphate group. ADP and ATP constantly convert back and forth in this manner.

6. Active transport directly uses a source of chemical energy (e.g., ATP) to move molecules across a membrane against their gradient.

A wagon is rolling forward on level ground. Friction is negligible. The person sitting in the wagon is holding a rock. The total

Lynna [10]

Explanation:

Given Data

Total mass=93.5 kg

Rock mass=0.310 kg

Initially wagon speed=0.540 m/s

rock speed=16.5 m/s

To Find

The speed of the wagon

Solution

As the wagon rolls, momentum is given as

P=mv

where

m is mass

v is speed

put the values

P=93.5kg × 0.540 m/s

P =50.49 kg×m/s

Now we have to find the momentum of rock

momentum of rock = mv

momentum of rock = (0.310kg)×(16.5 m/s)

momentum of rock =5.115 kg×m/s

From the conservation of momentum we can find the wagons momentum So

wagon momentum=50.49 -5.115 = 45.375 kg×m/s

Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)

Speed of wagon=45.375/(93.5-0.310)

Speed of wagon= 0.487 m/s

Throwing rock backward,

momentum of wagon = 50.49+5.115 = 55.605 kg×m/s

Speed of wagon = wagon momentum/(total mass-rock mass)

speed of wagon = 55.605 kg×m/s/(93.5kg-0.310kg)

speed of wagon= 0.5967 m/s

Electron cloud

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

<em><u>An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. Atom is made up of two parts ; that is the nucleus and the electron cloud. The nucleus contain subatomic particles; protons and neutrons, while the electron cloud contains the electrons.</u></em>
<em><u>The electron cloud is the largest part of the atom and is mostly an empty space. Most of an atom is a cloud of electrons surrounding a space called the nucleus with tiny protons and neutrons.</u></em>
