Why do the cells in all living things need energy?
Sav [38]

The correct option is (A) to fuel their chemical reactions

A lot of biochemical reactions occur per minute inside living cells and these reactions have to be sustained because the survival of living cells depend on them. For these reactions to proceed, energy is needed. This energy is usually obtained from the food which a living organism consumed. The mitochondria, which is the power house of the cell, is the one which convert the energy to the ATP form, which is usable by the cells.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The most appropriate answer would be A. The particle is a virus because it does not use energy and cannot reproduce by itself.  

Virus is defined as a small infectious agent that carry its own genetic material (DNA or RNA) but divides only in the living cells of other organisms (bacteria, human, animals, plants etc).

They are acellular in nature and thus are not able to reproduce on their own. They use the metabolism and machinery of the host cell in order to produce and assemble multiple copies of themselves in a cell.

They attach to the specific binding site of their target cells and inject their genetic material into the cell. The host cell's machinery is then used to replicate, transcribe and translate viral genetic material.

The viral genome produced are assembled in the protein cascade. They are then released by causing bursting of the infected cell.
