It's main function is to produce ATP, the energy currency of the cell.
The mitochondria take fuel (glucose) and essentially burns it. The energy given off by oxidizing the fuel is harnessed by causing ions to move across a membrane, kind of like pumping water. The ions then flow down through a protein which synthesizes ATP much like the water then flows down through a dam to generate electricity.Chlorophyll<span> is vital for photosynthesis, which allows </span>plants<span> to absorb energy from light. </span>Chlorophyll<span> molecules are specifically arranged in and around photosystems that are embedded in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.

Answer & explanation:
Amylase is part of enzymes, a group of large peptide molecules (formed by amino acids) whose role is to catalyze reactions in order to facilitate the synthesis of other biological molecules.
Amylase is found mainly in saliva (in the form of salivary amylase, or ptialin), acting in the breakdown of starch and glycogen in foods, reducing them to smaller particles, facilitating their digestion and absorption.
The action of enzymes depends on certain specific conditions, called optimal conditions. In the case of <u>amylase</u>, it depends on an optimum pH of 7 (neutral) and an optimum temperature of approximately 37 ° C.
This enzyme can still act between 35 ° C and 40 ° C, but below 35 ° C it is inactivated, preventing its functions from being performed, and above 40 ° C it suffers denaturation, causing changes in its structures.
Thus, it is concluded that the <u>temperature</u> (under optimal conditions) is important for enzymes because it keeps their actions and structures in proper operation.
Hey there!! So the Correct answer to your question is True. Reactants are not always formed but they do show in a chemical reaction because that is why its called a Reactant...it has a reaction to whatever you put in for the chemicals.Hope this helped!! Have a great day ^-^
