Cells store energy in the form of what

Physics
1 answer:
lukranit [14]3 years ago
3 0
Cells store energy either as carbohydrates or lipids (fats and oils).

Carbohydrates provide for fast, short term energy. They are a key part of cellular respiration.

Lipids provide for long term energy storage because storing lipids is much more effective than storing carbs. One gram of lipid can store twice as much as one gram of carbs. So to access this energy storage, cells must conduct hydrolysis (inserting a hydrogen and a hydroxide group to split off the energy). 

Hope this helps!

What are the various types of technologies used for exploring space and understanding space
fgiga [73]

The answer is flight technology, satelite technology, and  exploration technology.

The flight technology include advances in jet propulsion and navigation. Satelite have become more and more powerful and hecne communication with distant objects is increasing in efficiency. The emergence of AI robots in space exploration are reducing risks to humans in these deep ventures.

What would happen if the earth's core was destroyed?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
Our atmosphere would be quickly stripped away, much like what apparently happened on Mars after its molten core cooled and solidified. The spinning Earth core is what helps create our magnetic field, without which means no Van Allen Belts, which mean solar radiation becomes more lethal than just sun burn

Why would Sodium(Na) and Chlorine (CI) want to form a lonic Bond?
miskamm [114]

Answer: to achieve a stable octet of electrons in their outer shell

Explanation:

- Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 11, and an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s1.

- Chlorine (CI) Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 17, and an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5.

Hence, sodium donates its single valence electron to chlorine, thereby achieving a stable octet structure of 1s2, 2s2 2p6 while chlorine accept the single electron also forming a stable octet structure of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6. Therefore, the reaction yields NaCl, an ionic compound with ionic (electrovalent) bond.

Na + Cl --> NaCl

Thus, Sodium(Na) and Chlorine (CI) want to form a lonic Bond because both acheive a completely filled outermost shell (octet structure)
