When an organism breaks down organic molecules, some of the energy that had been stored as chemical energy is lost as heat. this

happens because when an organism breaks down organic molecules, some of the energy that had been stored as chemical energy is lost as heat. this happens because every energy transfer or transformation increases entropy. the enzymes in photosynthesis are inefficient. the enzymes in cellular respiration are inefficient. chemical energy can only be converted to heat energy.\?

<span>The right answer is: *some of the energy that had been stored as chemical energy is lost as heat.

Breaking down an organic molecule into smaller ones is part metabolism of all the living organisms. It is called catabolism.

Catabolism is the set of reactions of molecular degradation of the organism considered. It is the opposite of anabolism, all synthesis reactions. Catabolism and anabolism are the two components of metabolism.Catabolism reactions are oxidations (or dehydrogenations) and they are thermodynamically favorable, that is they are exergonic (yielding chemical energy, producing energy). A part of this energy is used for biological activities, like moving, building or binding molecules together. The other part is released as heat. (You can take an example in the real life like running, the energy lets you moving and produces by the way heat)</span>

the r group or side chain of the amino acid glutamic acid is hydrophilic. The R group of the amino acid valine is hydrophobic. w
boyakko [2]

Answer:

You would expect to find glutamic acid on the fringes of the three-dimensional protein structure while valine would be found mostly inside the protein structure.

This is because hydrophilic molecules are ‘water-loving’ because they carry a charge and can, therefore, interact ‘positively’ with water by forming hydrogen bonds with the polar water molecules. Hydrophobic molecules on the other hand are water-hating. They carry no charge hence have no way of ‘positively’ interacting with the polar water molecules.

Remember the structure of the cell membrane too? The negatively-charged phosphate ends of the phospholipid bi-layer sandwich the non-polar fatty acid chains because they don't ‘like’ interacting with water. This applies to the same principle.
