1) Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is thought of as the "molecular currency" for energy transfer within the cell. Function: ATPs are used as the main energy source for metabolic functions. They are consumed by energy-requiring (endothermic) processes and produced by energy-releasing (exothermic) processes in the cell and Cells store energy in the form of ATP; cells make 36 ATP through cellular respiration.
2) Energy is normally stored long term as carbohydrate, in plants the storage polymer is starch whereas in animals the storage polymer is glycogen. Both of these are formed from the monomer alpha-glucose (C6H12O6). When energy is required by the cell, storage polymers are hydrolysed to yield glucose molecules, which are the starting point of respiration, a series of chemical regions yielding ATP, the universal cellular energy release molecule.
Answer: Producers
Explanation: Producers are autotroph, which means they make their own food, like plants.
Answer and Explanation:
The sensory information encoded for by the hair cells in the maculae of the saccule and utricule are:
- the direction and strength of mechanical stimuli (polarity information)
- Response to the head's rotational movement
Functions of the otoliths
The otoliths provide balance, movements and serve as directional indicators in vertebrates. They help higher vertebrates in sound detection.
Functions of the vestibular nuclei
- Maintenance of equilibrium and posture
- Modification of muscle tone
- Relays information to the cerebral cortex
- Directing the movements of the head and eye
- Maintaining the line of vision
They provide the immune system with "memory" against previously encountered pathogens.
T memory cells are necessary for protective immunity against invading pathogens
