Energy is released to be used by a cell when a phosphate group is ?
Gekata [30.6K]

Energy is released to be used by a cell when a phosphate group is <u><em>Removed from ATP to form ADP.</em></u>

Answer: <em>C. Removed from ATP to form ADP </em>

Explanation:

Three important energy carrier molecules in a cell are: ATP (Adenosine triphosphate, NADPH (Nicotinamide Adenosine Dinucleotide Phosphate) and FADH2. All the three carrier molecules play an important role in cellular respiration and photosynthesis.

One NADH molecule is equal to 3 ATP molecule while 1 FADH2 molecule is equal to 2 ATP molecule. During the active process, ATP is used as a form of energy because ATP dephosphorylates to ADP and Inorganic phosphate, Pi and release energy.

In a plant called jimsonweed, flowers can be white or purple. A jimsonweed plant with white flowers is crossed with a jimsonweed
STALIN [3.7K]

<u>Answer:</u>

Although statements are not given in the question, we could make the most possible deduction as follows:

The allele for purple flowers is dominant whereas allele for white flowers is recessive.

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the question,

  1. Purple flower plant was crossed with white flower plant.
  2. All offsprings have purple flowers.

Here we have one possibility that both parents were homozygous but in their own traits. <u>Purple flower</u> plants were "PP" and white <u>flower plants</u> were "pp" So, the <u>first progeny</u> (direct offsprings) would have "Pp". So, as per considerations, purple is dominant allele which will mask the recessive allele thus defining the color of all offsprings as purple. However, further cross of their generation will definitely end up into purple and white flowers (3:1) but this condition is not mentioned in the statement.
