Muscle cells is the answer

The answer is muscle cells. This is because they are responsible for either voluntary movement (skeletal muscle) or involuntary movement (smooth muscle). This movement requires energy to power the movement of the actin and myosin action that is the core of every muscle. Each myosin has an ATP-binding site.

During glycolysis, when glucose is catabolized to pyruvate, most of the energy of glucose is a. retained in the pyruvate. b. tra

Leona [35]

Answer:

a. retained in the pyruvate

Explanation:

Glycolysis is a cytoplasmic pathway that converts glucose into two pyruvate, releasing a modest amount of energy captured in two substrate-level phosphorylations and one oxidation reaction.

Following are the important enzymes in it :

Hexokinase
Phosphofructokinase
Pyruvate kinase

Aerobic glycolysis yields 2ATP/glucose plus 2NADH/glucose but most of the energy is retained in pyruvate which is then converted into Acetyl-CoA and enters the kreb's cycle.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer: The correct options that apply to the food web are-

Food webs are a group of connected food chains.
Arrows in a food web go from the organism that is being eaten to the organism that is eating it.
Arrows in a food web represent the flow of energy in a food web.
Food webs show all of the eating patterns in an ecosystem.

A food web is an interconnected network of different food chains representing flow of energy and matter within an ecosystem. The different arrows in a food chain represent organisms being eaten by other organisms, thereby representing flow of energy. It also represents that an animal can consume more than one food type.
