The energy released when sugar molecules are broken down is transferred to bonds in which molecule

1 answer:

8 0

Sugar molecules (i.e. glucose) are broken down into simpler molecules such as pyruvate. Pyruvate, in the presence of oxygen will be converted to Acetyl-CoA and it will enter the tricarboxylic acid cycle wherein it will produce series of reducing compounds such as NADH and FADH. These reducing compounds are then processed in the electron transport chain and oxidized, and the energy released in the oxidation of NADH and FADH is transferred to the high energy phosphate bond of adenosine triphosphate or ATP.

What is the sequence of the mrna made from the gene aaacaggtccca?

olga nikolaevna [1]

<span>The mRNA is made by using the gene AAACAGGTCCCA as a template for complementary base-pairing. The pairings are: G (Guanine) to C (Cytosine), C to G, T (Thymine) to A (Adenine), and A to U (Uracil, as Tyhmine doesn't occur in the RNA). The resulting mRNA is UUUGUCCAGGGU.</span>

Answer:

b.)water + carbon dioxide → sugar + oxygen

Explanation:

Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other organisms convert carbon dioxide into sugars and other organic compounds by the use of solar energy

In this process raw materials which is water and carbon dioxide are converted to sugars and oxygen which are the end products through the use of sunlight
