ATP contains chemical potential energy that will snuggle up to a metabolic reaction in your cells---like the contraction of muscles or sending electrical messages along your nerve cells---- and release the energy of the bonds that hold the third phosphate molecule to the the rest of the ATP(called ADP)
<h2>Pentose phosphate pathway</h2>
Explanation:
- Ten days after an injury, there is still cellular and tissue repair going on. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase are two enzymes involved in the pentose phosphate pathway which are also found in abundance in neutrophils and macrophages. These phagocytic cells of the immune system utilize NADPH to generate superoxide radicals from molecular oxygen, which are used to kill the pathogens or damaged cells they have ingested. The great rise in these two enzymes could be coming from these immune cells as they are cleaning up the damaged tissue.
- Additionally, these immune cells use these two enzymes to produce NADPH, which can be used to counterbalance oxidative stress via the action of the glutathione system. Injured tissue can cause oxidative stress and increase the need for action from the glutathione system.
- The glycolytic enzyme activity would be decreased as some of the glucose is shunted to the pentose phosphate pathway to favor tissue repair over the ATP generation which comes from the glycolytic pathway reactions.
D, because both A and C are correct.
It indicates what elements is composed by and how many atoms of one element are linked to the other.
For example, this is the formula for table salt is:
NaCl
The formula indicates that table salt (sodium chloride) is composed by sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) on a 1:1 ratio.

A chromosome consists of a single, double-stranded DNA molecule. Chromatids are two molecules of double-stranded DNA joined together in the center by a centromere. Chromosomes have a thin ribbon-like structure. Chromatids have a thin and long fibrous structure.
