A chemical reaction is a process in which one or more substances are changed into new substances.
An example of a chemical reaction is when metal rusts.
Atom refers to a tiny particle, which is the basic building block of all the substances and whose properties determine the characteristics of an element made up of only of those atoms.
All the living and nonliving matter in this world are made up of atoms and elements. Everything in the universe is matter, and matter comprises elements. Some of the elements are important to living things.
Elements are formed by atoms, and atoms comprise protons, electrons, and neutrons. The number of protons in an element's atom signifies the identity of the element.
Answer:
B.
Explanation:
Glucose is an organic molecule that stores ATP or energy while Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an energy-carrying molecule.
ATP used as an active energy source over glucose because ATP is a shorter process and releases energy in a single reaction as glucose first converted into ATP and then used as energy in cellular respiration.
Hence, the correct option is "B".
<h3><u>Answer and Explanation;</u></h3>
- <u>Endosymbiotic theory</u> explains the origin of chloroplasts and mitochondria and their double membrane. Mitochondria of eukaryotes evolved from aerobic bacteria living within their host cell and the chloroplasts of eukaryotes evolved from endosymbiotic cyanobacteria.
- On the other hand according to the <u>autogenous hypothesis, </u>mitochondria and chloroplasts have evolved within the protoeukaryote cell by compartmentalizing plasmids or vesicles of DNA within a pinched off invagination of the cell membrane.
- <u>Endosymbiont theory </u>is the theory that suggests that simple prokaryotic cells were engulfed by larger prokaryotes 1.5 billion years ago.
- <u>Autogenous theory</u> is a theory that was proposed as an alternative to endosymbiont theory. proposes that eukaryotic organelles formed by infolding of the plasma membrane.
- <u>Horizontal gene transfer theory</u> is an alternative to endosymbiont and autogenous theories for the origin of complex organelles in eukaryotes.
