How does atp provide energy to our body

1 answer:

7 0

ATP is Adenosine Triphosphate. It is the primary energy carrier in all living organisms. ATP is the energy metabolized from food and light collected by organisms. It is often referred to as the energy currency of life. ATP is used to power almost all of the cells activities by harnessing food and light. It powers muscle contraction, protein consumption, cell communication, heat mechanisms, and much more. I hope this helped you!!! :))

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

has muscles and nerve cells

Explanation:

We all have a vague idea of what an animal is. However, when we ask for defining characteristics, there may be confusion. Saying that an animal is moving, for example, may be true for some groups, but not for others.

For an organism to be considered an animal, it must have characteristics in common with all animals, that is, that organism must be eukaryotic, multicellular, heterotrophic and have no cell wall, muscle and nerve cells.

The trp and lac operons are regulated in various ways. How do bacteria regulate transcription of these operons? Sort the stateme

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Operon is not transcribed:

-lac operon: lactose absent

-trp operon: tryptophan present

Operon is transcribed, but not sped up through positive control:

-lac operon: lactose and glucose present

-trp operon: tryptophan absent

Operon is transcribed quickly through positive control:

-lac operon: lactose present, glucose not

Explanation:

The trp operon is controlled via negative control only.

Presence of tryptophan will inhibit the transcription of the operon genes

The lac operon is controlled via negative control and positive control.

●Negative control:

--Transcription is turned off due to

active Repressor protein and absence of lactose

--Transcription is turned on due to

Inactive Repressor protein and presence of lactose

●Positive control:

--Transcription rate is higher due to absence of transcription and presence of lactose as a regulatory protein (CAP) adhere to the lac operon promoter
