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.

lana [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is -transfer fixed carbon dioxide to cells in which the Calvin cycle occurs

Explanation:

In C4 plants the light reaction and Calvin cycle occurs in two different cell that are mesophyll cell and bundle sheath cells. First, the CO₂ is fixed into 4- carbon oxaloacetate by an enzyme PEP carboxylase.  

Then this oxaloacetate is converted into a simpler form called malate. Malate molecule then enters into bundle sheet cell and there it releases one molecule of CO₂. This CO₂ enters the Calvin cycle which results in the sugar formation with the help of enzyme rubisco.

Therefore by releasing of CO₂ molecule by malate in bundle sheet cells, it transfer fixed carbon for the Calvin cycle to occur.

Which three statements are true about the energy flow in an ecosystem
Lady_Fox [76]

Ecosystem energy flow. Energy's life moves. The energy cycle is based on the flow of energy in an ecosystem through various trophic levels. The cycling energy and nutrients obtained from various external sources maintain our ecosystem.

The responses are A, B, and E. A) Because the sun provides the entire ecosystem with energy, it is a major source of energy. B) because photosynthesis is the process in which plants convert radiant energy from the sun into chemical energy to form sugar-known glucose. E) I believe because, as it moves throughout the ecosystem, the amount of energy at each trophic level decreases.

I hope this helped!!!
