Adenosine triphosphate is considered a high-energy compound. The energy of this compound is transferred to the cellular machinery by  the conversion of ATP to ADP. Along with this conversion is the release of energy which is used by the cells. ATP contains an ordered carbon structure which is the backbone of the compound and also it contains the triphosphate part which is the most important region of the compound. These phosphorus groups are being connected by oxygen atoms and they have oxygen atoms on the side. These atoms of oxygen has a negative charge which would cause for them to repel and would want to be away from each other. Removing even just one would release about 7.3 kcal of energy per mole of ATP.

Which of the following is not a direct fate of the energy flowing through photosynthesis? a. carnivores b. cellular respiration
EastWind [94]

Answer:

The correct answer is a. carnivores.

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants make their food from carbon dioxide and water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. Hence, they convert light energy into chemical energy (food or glucose).

This energy is first utilized in the cellular respiration and then the rest in transferred to the primary consumers i.e. herbivores which feed on green plants.

They use this energy in their metabolic processes. The rest is transferred to the secondary consumers i.e. carnivores which feed on the herbivores.

Hence, energy from the photosynthesis indirectly passes to the carnivores via herbivores.
