Answer:

Photosynthesis

Explanation:

The leaf (from Latin fŏlĭum, fŏlĭi) is the vegetative and generally flattened organ of vascular plants, specialized mainly to perform photosynthesis. The morphology and anatomy of stems and leaves are closely related and, together, both organs constitute the stem of the plant.

Typical leaves - also called nomophiles - are not the only ones that develop during the life cycle of a plant. From the germination, different types of leaves follow each other - coiled, primordial leaves, prophilic, bracts and antophiles in flowers - with very different forms and functions.

A nomophile usually consists of a flattened sheet, a short stem - the petiole - that joins the sheet to the stem and, at its base, a pair of appendages - the stipules. The presence or absence of these elements and the extreme diversity of forms of each of them has generated a rich vocabulary to categorize the multiplicity of types of leaves presented by vascular plants, whose description is called foliar morphology.

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.
