ATP is Adenosine Triphosphate. It is the primary energy carrier in all living organisms. ATP is the energy metabolized from food and light collected by organisms. It is often referred to as the energy currency of life. ATP is used to power almost all of the cells activities by harnessing food and light. It powers muscle contraction, protein consumption, cell communication, heat mechanisms, and much more. I hope this helped you!!! :))
Mitochondria are made from the process called binary fission. This is the cell division utilized by the prokaryotes. It also has circular DNA that is similar in both size and structure in prokaryotic cells. Mitochondria also has its own DNA different than the DNA found in the nucleus of a cell.
Answer:
A pan of boiling water being heated on the stove
Explanation:
In this scenario, energy can easily be lost in the form of steam / water vapor so energy can be lose to the environment
The mitotic spindle pulls the chromosomes together at the metaphase plate. Microtubules from opposite spindle poles grab the two sister chromatids of each chromosome. In metaphase, the spindle has collected all the chromosomes and lined them up at the middle of the cell, ready to divide.
<h3>
What are chromosomes?</h3>
Chromosomes are the greatest level of DNA and protein organization. Chromosomes' primary job is to transport DNA and genetic information from parents to offspring. During cell division, chromosomes play a vital role. They keep DNA from becoming twisted or damaged.
The metaphase plate is a plane or region that is about equidistant from a dividing cell's two poles.

I believe the correct order is:
D - A nerve signal arrives at an axon terminal;
B - Voltage gated calcium channels open and calcium enters the cell;
C - ACh is released and diffuses across the axon terminal;
E - Ligand gated sodium channels open and sodium enters the cell.
A - A postsynaptic potential is produced;
Explanation:
The dendrites of the presynaptic neurons receive a signal. The signal stimulates the nucleus of the presynaptic neuron to produce an electrical signal that is managed by the axon hillock. the axon hillock again manages and transmits the nerve impulse into the axon towards the axon terminal. The signal is transmitted via saltatory conduction on myelinated axons for faster communication. When the nerve impulse reaches the axon terminal, it causes opening of voltage gated calcium ion channels. This will cause an influx of calcium ions into the presynaptic axon terminal. The influx of calcium ions then stimulates the synaptic vessicles in the presynaptic membrane that contain the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACh) to move towards the presynaptic membrane. They then fuse with the membrane and open up releasing all their acetylcholine into the synaptic cleft (space between presynaptic membrane and post synaptic membrane). The ACh will bind to ligand ion channels on post synaptic membrane causing opening of sodium channels and there is an influx of sodium inside the post synaptic membrane producing a membrane potential. The voltage gated calcium ion channels in the presynaptic membrane will then close and no more ACh is released. The cells then return to rest. The acetylcholine in the postsynaptic neuron is either broken down by the enzyme acetylcholinesterase into metabolites that are used by the cell or they are removed as waste into the surrounding glial cells called astrocytes that nourish neurons. They (ACh) also can be stored for future use by the post synaptic neuron.
