Answer:

The reaction that converts a lower-energy molecule into a higher-energy molecule is ADP + P + energy.

Explanation:

ATP is the molecule that provides energy to the cell. It possesses three phosphate groups, each of which is bound by high-energy bonds and the separation of a phosphate by hydrolysis of ATP is strongly exergonic. The energy released is used by the cell to perform its functions.

In order to form an ATP molecule, ADP is required to bind to a phosphate group, a process that requires energy to establish the P-O-P bond, so the reaction, which is reversible, would be:

ATP + H₂O ⇄ ADP + Pi + ↑energy

This is what allows to convert a lower-energy molecule into a higher-energy molecule and permits an ATP molecule to become the energy exchanger of living organisms.

How do climate and abiotic factors affect how organisms will be distributed in ecosystems?

solong [7]

Answer:

Every organisms on the planet requires a specific environmental conditions for its growth and survival. If the environmental condition is favorable, the organisms grow fast and if the conditions are not suitable so it adversely affected the organisms. For example, plants grow best at the temperature between 25 to 40 Celsius. If the temperature goes below 25 or above 40, the growth decrease and sometimes the plant dies. So climate and abiotic factors such as temperature, humidity, light intensity etc has a great impact on the organisms.

In which location would the rate of soil erosion most likely be higher than the rate of soil formation?

Over [174]

The question is incomplete, options are given below:

A. A tropical area with moderate rainfall

B. A temperate forest

C. A steep slope

D. A river delta

Answer:

C. A steep slope

Explanation:

Erosion is a weathering process that causes removal of the top layer of sediments from any geological material (rock, plain area, etc) and then transports that material to another place. This process is governed by the combined action of wind, water (precipitation), gravity, and other meteorological parameters.

For this question, four options are given among which rate of erosion would be faster than the rate of soil formation for a steep slope. For a steep slope, the movement of water and wind would be stronger along with high gravitational pull as compared to the tropical area, river delta, and temperate forest. In principle, in the temperate forest, the erosion would be lowest due to the presence of plant roots that support the soil material to stay aggregated and resist against weathering.

Which of the following would be an inconclusive pregnancy test (not negative) when using a lateral flow test to detect pregnancy

taurus [48]

A band in the test line but not a band in the control line indicates an inconclusive pregnancy test.

<h3>What is Pregnancy test?</h3>

This test involves the measurement of Human chorionic gonadotropin in the body as it is synonymous with pregnancy.

A band in the test line but not a band in the control line indicates an inconclusive pregnancy test while a band in the control line but not a band in the test line indicates a negative test result.
