Answer: Removed.

Explanation:

<u>ATP, which stands for Adenosine triphosphate, is an energy-carrying molecule which has chemical energy stored in its bonds with phosphate groups.</u> This molecule consists of adenosine (a sugar) and three phosphate groups (triphosphate)

This energy is obtained during cellular respiration from the breakdown of nutrients, and releases it to fuel cellular processes.

So, when the cell needs energy, <u>ATP loses a phosphate group, releasing the energy stored in that bond,</u> thus driving the metabolic processes of life. This energy is released because of the cleavage of high energy phosphate bond in ATP converting it into ADP (now it has two phosphates)

"what could potentially cause more damage to an organism, a substitution mutation or an insertion mutation? explain your reasoni
rodikova [14]

Answer:

insertion mutation

Explanation:

a substitution mutation only changes one thing, but an insertion mutation changes everything after the point of insertion. The insertion pushes everything back, causing a chain effect

lets say i have the sentence "I have a dog"

a substitution mutation might change it to "K have a dog", seems kinda bad, but not as bad as "K Ihav e ado g" (result of insertion of K at beginning)

Anestetic [448]

Blue-green algae affect freshwater, and it has a direct correlation to agricultural and urban runoff.

The heavy rains last spring most likely caused Lake Okeechobee to discharge water containing blue-green algae into rivers and canals. The bright green sludge oozed onto docks, dams and rivers and through tributaries into the ocean.

Blue-green algae (cyanobacteria) are a group of prokaryotic, autotrophic microorganisms that contain the photosynthetic pigments (chlorophyll and phycocyanin), Therefore, the DNA shows bacteria

Bacteria is the correct answer
