Explain how ATP stores and releases energy

Biology
1 answer:
atroni [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The ATP molecule can store energy in the form of a high energy phosphate bond joining the terminal phosphate group to the rest of the molecule. In this form, energy can be stored at one location, then moved from one part of the cell to another, where it can be released to drive other biochemical reactions.

In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP. ... When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work.

“Mitosis and Meiosis I are very different, but Mitosis and Meiosis II are very similar. Therefore, Meiosis I must cause all the
eimsori [14]
Yes, I agree with statement b/c in meiosis I, specifically in prophase I the homologous chromosomes line and form tetrads in which they exhibit the act of ‘crossing over’ which allows for genetic diversity; This would not occur in mitosis as body cells are produced to repair or for growth so the division of cells must allow for the exact replication of DNA or it is not possible to repair the body or growth if there is genetic variation in each cell. Also, in Meiosis I, specifically when metaphase I occurs, it is impossible to predict how the homologous chromosomes will be split, therefore creating even more diversity of genes known as Independent assortment. None of these processes occur in meiosis II, as the exchange of DNA and act of genetic diversity has already occurred in Meiosis I, therefore Meiosis II simply has to go throwing regular cell division making it more similar to mitosis than Meiosis I; Independent assortment and crossing over are the processes that set Meiosis I to differ from the others.

What is the basic unit that is put together over and over to build a strand of dna?
amm1812

The basic units that are put together over and over to build a strand of dna are called as nucleotides.

<u>Explanation:</u>

DNA is a heteropolymer that involves many monomers that is the nucleotides that are joined together by phosphodiester bonds in order to develop a complete DNA. The nucleotides consists of nitrogenous bases, phosphate groups and the sugar molecules that are bound together to form a complete nucleotide. The phosphate groups form a backbone through which the nucleotides are joined together.
