Answer:

The amount of energy stored in a molecule of ATP compared to the amount stored in a molecule of glucose is <u>less</u>.

Explanation:

Both ATP and glucose are energy containing molecules. However, a molecule of glucose has about 90 times more energy than a molecule of ATP.

But, ATP is used by most cells as the quickest source of energy. This is because ATP can easily be broken down to generate energy and it transfers energy very effectively.

A molecule of ATP is made up of adenine and three phosphate groups. The bond between the second and third phosphate is broken down to generate energy.

If you are driving down the road, how do you know that the car is moving (think about your reference point)?
NISA [10]
If your car is changing speed by accelerating or decelerating, or changing directions by turning or hitting a bump, your body can sense these accelerations. You might be pressed against the back of your seat while speeding up or against the car door as you turn for example. If you are cruising at a constant speed, with no changes in speed or direction, you wouldn't be able to feel it. You would need to use your other senses. You could see the scenery going by through the windows, with closer objects moving by more quickly than objects in the distance. You could also hear sounds like the wind rushing by and the hum of the tires rolling on the highway.

The chaparral biome is generally characterized by its terrain.<br><br><br> True or False?
Igoryamba
I believe this would be false. Chaparral biomes can have many different types of terrains. The land in a chaparral biome can be mountainous, rocky, or flat. Chaparral biomes are generally defined by their temperature and climate. They are very hot and dry, and have mild winters and extreme summers. Hope this helps.
