Answer:
The correct answer is option (C) "After splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane".
Explanation:
Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is an organic chemical molecule considered the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer, for the high level of energy that is released when ATP is breakdown into adenosine diphosphate (ADP). ATP provides energy to drive many processes in living cells. One example of how the chemical potential energy of this molecule is turned into work is that after splitting ATP, a protein changes shape to pump ions across a membrane. The energy of the splitting of ATP into ADP will provide energy for the protein being able to change shape, resulting in pumping ions across a membrane.
Answer:
C. 217
Explanation:
Mendel obtained the phenotypic ratio of 3 dominant: 1 recessive in the F2 generation of a monohybrid cross. According to the given information, inflated pods are dominant over the constricted one.
Let's assume that the allele C is responsible for inflated pods while the recessive allele "c" gives constricted pods. A cross between two pure breeding plants with inflated (CC) and constricted pods (cc) would give all the plants with inflated pods (Cc) in the F1 generation. A cross between two F1 plants would obtain F2 generation in following ratio=3 Inflated: 1 constricted.
Therefore, if 650 plants with inflated pods were obtained in the F2 generation, 217 plants must have constricted pods since 650:217 is almost equal to 3:1.
<span>The function of an ADP, or Adenosine diphosphate molecule, is to assist in the flow of energy throughout the cell. The basic structure of the molecule itself is made up of three main parts - a sugar backbone, which is attached one adenine molecule and two phosphate groups, which is then bonded to a 5' carbon atom of ribose. </span>
