Why do cells use fat and starch for long-term energy storage instead of ATP molecules?

<span>ATP is a form of energy releasing molecules that are used for several rapid processes in the body, such as vesicular trafficking and cellular communication. Starches and fats have long chains of carbon bonds that take the body a while to metabolize and release as a slow form of energy.</span>

How are the three stages of photosynthesis linked?
pantera1 [17]

STEP ONE: Harvesting Radiant Energy

The first step of photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells. Light photons are absorbed by a pigment called chlorophyll, which is abundant in the thylakoid membrane of each chloroplast. Chlorophyll appears green to the eye because it does not absorb green waves on the light spectrum. It reflects them instead, so that’s the color you see.

STAGE 2: Converting Radiant Energy

After radiant energy from sunlight is absorbed, the plant converts light energy into a usable form of chemical energy to fuel the plant’s cells

STAGE 3: Storing Radiant Energy

The last stage of the photosynthesis process is known as the Calvin-Benson cycle, in which the plant uses atmospheric carbon dioxide and water from soil to convert ATP and NADPH. The chemical reactions that make up the Calvin-Benson cycle occur in the stroma of the chloroplast.

Battery acid is acidic in nature so its pH will be more.if we add a base its acidity level decreases and it becomes a poor acid. here water acts as a base to decrease the pH value and acidic nature of a acid substance that is battery acid.
