Answer:

provides chemical energy

Explanation:

Living cells require energy to perform their various functions. This energy is obtained via the process of RESPIRATION, which is the breakdown of food molecules in order to convert the stored energy in them to a usable form by the cell. The usable form of energy by living cells is Adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

ATP is the energy currency of the cell released during cell respiration. ATP is structurally composed of Adenine (a nitrogenous base), Ribose (a pentose sugar) and three phosphate groups. ATP is a high energy carrying molecule that stores energy in the bonds that hold its phosphate group. This energy is released for use by the cell when one of the phosphate groups is released to form Adenosine diphosphate (ADP) molecule.

saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

Esta afirmación es correcta ya que la ley de conservación de la energía es también aplicable a sistemas vivos  

Explanation:

La ley de la conservación de la energía (la cual es la primera ley de la termodinámica) indica que la energía no se puede crear ni se puede destruir, solamente se transforma, de un tipo a otro. La ley de la conservación de la energía es de vital importancia para entender la existencia del mundo natural. En ecología, la energía fluye de un nivel trófico a otro en forma de biomasa, es decir, dentro de la cadena alimentaria. Esta energía no se puede crear ni destruir sino que es almacenada en los organismos, los cuales representan sistemas abiertos que intercambian materia y energía con el medio. Una vez dentro del organismo, una parte de esta energía es transformada (en plantas, por ejemplo, la energía es convertida en enlaces químicos durante la síntesis de carbohidratos), mientras que otra parte de la energía se elimina al exterior (por ejemplo, se disipa en forma de calor), pero la energía no se crea ni se destruye.
