Answer:

It loos its terminal phosphate and convert back into ATP.

Explanation:

ATP is also called the energy currency of cells. It contains energy in its high energy terminal phosphate bond. Once the bond is broken the energy gets release which is used in various metabolic reactions.

After losing the terminal phosphate the ATP converts into ADP. This ADP than converts back into ATP during substrate-level phosphorylation during the oxidation of organic compounds or in oxidative phosphorylation. Therefore ATP molecule gets converts into ADP after it gets used.

ziro4ka [17]

Which is true about enzymes is: enzymes increase the rate of reactions by lowering the activation energy barrier.

Enzymes are chemical compounds in the form of proteins that act as biocatalysts which function to speed up reactions.

Enzymes work specifically, that is, they can only work on certain substrates by adjusting the shape of the substrate. Enzymes sensor with molecules for substrates to produce compounds through organic chemical reactions that require energy. Some of the reactions assisted by enzymes such as the breaking of large molecules into small ones or the binding of molecules into new molecules. Enzymes can do that because of the influence of the activation energy that every chemical reaction has.

Activation energy is the energy required to break down the reactants. The role of enzymes is to lower the activation energy limit needed to start reactions.

marysya [2.9K]
After looking at the graph represented above, I think I habe recognized the correct answer, <span> so the statement  which would best predict the population in generation 4 is being shown in the first option : </span><span>The nonresistant aphid would become extinct. As you can see from the tree pictures, nonresistant ones gradually become lower and lower and in the last one it has the same weak position as resistant in the first picture, then I would say that nonresistant will expire soon.

Hope that helps!</span>
