ELEN [110]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Chemical energy that is stored in the food molecules such as sugars are converted into the chemical energy that is available for the cell to perform various cellular functions, it is stored in ATP known as the currency of the cell.

ATP has three phosphate groups attached to adenosine by a phosphoanhydride bond. When a cell requires energy it loses the third phosphate group and releases a huge amount of energy stored in the phosphoanhydride group and form ADP.

When the second phosphate group is lost by breaking the bond again energy is released again left AMP. The breaking of this bond takes place due to hydrolysis reaction

What are 3 major pieces of evidence that prove different species are related?
Julli [10]

Three different ways the relatedness of species could be assessed is through:

<span>1.    </span>Their genotype. Similarity in DNA between the species is a good indication of their relatedness.

<span>2.    </span>Their phenotype. If the two species have similar body form and function, then there is a good possibility that they are related.

<span>The presence of intermediates, either living or in the fossil record, can show relatedness between two species.</span>

2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) is a weak acid that can diffuse across lipid membranes. When added to eukaryotic cells, DNP can enter th
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

a. In the presence of 2,4 dinitrophenol, which is soluble through the lipid membranes, the H+ gets an another route to pass through the membrane. It hampers the proton gradient potential without any generation of ATP. The gradient that was being utilized for the generation of energy is now just lost in the form of heat.  

b. With the reduction in the generation of energy, the cells get devoid of ATP, and drive the electron transport chain intensely so that the collapsing proton gradient gets re-established. However, it prevents the ATP synthase by providing a different path to the proton ions and thus diminishing the H+ concentration gradient.
