<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
They generate chemical energy in the form of ATP.
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
Mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell because they "burn" or break the chemical bonds of glucose to release energy to do work in a cell. This releases energy (ATP) for the cell. The more active a cell (such as a muscle cell), the more mitochondria it will have.
Explanation:
Nucleic acids are polymers of individual nucleotide monomers. Each nucleotide is composed of three parts: a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base. Only two 5-carbon sugars are found in nature: ribose and deoxyribose.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
A glucose molecule enters glycolysis in the cytoplasm of the cell. The glycolytic reactions break down one molecule of glucose into two molecules of pyruvate. Each of the pyruvate molecules is then decarboxylated and is oxidized into acetyl CoA. Acetyl CoA enters Kreb's cycle. Acetyl CoA is completely broken down into CO2 and H2O in Kreb's cycle. In this way, glycolysis and Kreb's cycle break down the glucose molecule into CO2 and H2O in a stepwise manner.
