When a muscle cell demands energy to contract, what happens to ATP?

Biology
1 answer:
icang [17]3 years ago
6 0
C. ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) has three phosphate groups attached. Each one of the groups occupies an extremely high energy bond (free energy that can do work). In muscle contraction, that high-energy bond is broken and the energy is released for muscle contraction. So when the bond is broken, you end up with ADP (Adenosine Dipohosphate) - broken down.

1. Why is diffusion insufficient to meet the oxygen requirements of multicellular organisms like humans?
astraxan [27]

1.   The oxygen requirements of an animal cannot be met by the process of     diffusion as diffusion is a very slow process. To overcome this, multicellular organisms have specialized cells and tissues for performing various necessary functions of the body such as intake of oxygen and food.

2.   What criteria do we use to decide whether something is alive? Any visible movement such as walking, breathing, or growing is generally used to decide whether something is alive or not. However, a living organism can also have movements, which are not visible to the naked eye.

3.   An organism uses outside raw materials mostly in the form of food and oxygen. The raw materials required by an organism can be quite varied depending on the complexity of the organism and its environment.

4.   The various processes essential for maintaining life are nutrition, respiration, transportation, excretion, control and coordination.
