Energy used by the body to perform muscular contractions is called adenosine diphosphate, or ADP.

Biology
1 answer:
Bezzdna [24]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The energy used for muscular cont ration is ATP(adenosine triphosphate) This is the energy currency produced in the mitochondrial during cellular respiration.

During muscles contraction.The ATPs is broken down to ADP and Pi.

This is the breakdown of energy rich bonds binding phosphate ions with ATP.The breakdown of the bonds produced -32kJper the 3 bonds in ATP. Therefore as each bond is broken, energy is produced for muscle contraction

It is an exergonic reaction with production of heat.

Thus ATP is used for muscle contraction.ADP is the intermediate of ATP when one Phosphate is removed during the breakdown.

Thus the sequence is Adenosine triphosphate (3 phosphate) to Adenosine diphosphate(2 phosphate) to Adenosine monophosphate (1 phosphate)

Each bond breakin gives equal energy of -32kJpermol.

Select all that apply. Which descriptions, plants, and animals are characteristic of the rainforest biome? very high humidity vi
Lyrx [107]
The answers are:

- very high humidity
- vines
- palms
- highest species diversity 
- gorillas 

Rainforests have very high humidity because it rains throughout the whole year and is constant summer, so the precipitation and high temperature contribute to very high humidity.
The rainforests have the highest species diversity of any biome, both animals, and plants, including plants like the vines that crawl on the other trees and the palms, as well as animals like the gorilla in Africa, in the Congo basin.
