Oxygen is an element in the sixth group of the periodic table. This means it contains 6 electrons in its valence shell. Therefore, to complete its octet, it will prefer to gain two electrons rather than to donate 6. This is why its valency is -2. The relatively easy to achieve octet makes Oxygen a reactive element.

Anna [14]

Explanation:

Mitochondria are the power house of the cell, they priduce atp from a series of processes. The ATP or Adenosine triphosphate is broken down to ADP or Adenosine diphosphate. To put simply emergy is released when a bond is broken due to hydrolysis which releases energy. More mitochondria are found in areas where mkre energy is required such as cells in,muscles, liver cells,and brain cells. ATP is extremely important for the heqrt as wnergy is required for the pumping of blood by contraction of the heart muscle.

In the fall of the year, the leaves of some trees change color as chlorophyll begins to break down. what impact does this have o
NeTakaya

It's main function is to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell. The mitochondria take fuel (glucose) and essentially burns it. The energy given off by oxidizing the fuel is harnessed by causing ions to move across a membrane, kind of like pumping water. The ions then flow down through a protein which synthesizes ATP much like the water then flows down through a dam to generate electricity.
