Adenosine triphosphate is considered a high-energy compound. The energy of this compound is transferred to the cellular machinery by the conversion of ATP to ADP. Along with this conversion is the release of energy which is used by the cells. ATP contains an ordered carbon structure which is the backbone of the compound and also it contains the triphosphate part which is the most important region of the compound. These phosphorus groups are being connected by oxygen atoms and they have oxygen atoms on the side. These atoms of oxygen has a negative charge which would cause for them to repel and would want to be away from each other. Removing even just one would release about 7.3 kcal of energy per mole of ATP.
a. the new cell will not have instructions on how to function
Because all the genetic material is stored in the chromosomes. Thus, all information is in it.
Members of one kind of organism in a ecosystem are called a population.
The nervous system is referred to as a communication system because it carries messages to and from all parts of the body.
Answer:
The process illustrated in the diagram is the non light dependent reactions of photosynthesis termed as Calvin Cycle.
Explanation:
- Two molecules of 3-phosphoglycerate (3-PGA) are produced or released from step one to step two of Calvin cycle.
- The source of energy that helps to start step one are ATP and NADPH, mainly derived from the light dependent reaction.
- The oxygen molecule thus formed by splitting of water is release to the nature as oxygen, which living organisms utilizes in respiration.
- Carbon dioxide comes from the atmosphere to start the process.
- Light reactions occurs in the thylakoid membranes of the plant organelles namely chloroplasts.
- Non-light dependent reaction or Calvin cycle takes place in the stroma chloroplasts.
