What is occurring in this equation? ATP + H2O --> ADP + Pi + energy

Biology
1 answer:
Triss [41]3 years ago

Answer:

ATP hydrolysis

Explanation:

ATP hydrolysis is the catabolic process whereby an Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecule is broken down by the addition of water to form ADP, inorganic phosphate (Pi) and a release of energy. ATP is an high energy storing molecule in living cells. The stored energy is released when it undergoes hydrolysis.

ATP + H2O → ADP + Pi + energy

From the above reaction, energy once stored in ATP is now available for use. This reaction is hence, called HYDROLYSIS because it involves break down of ATP with the aid of water molecule.

Summarize Isaac Newton's law of gravity
tankabanditka [31]
Newton's law of gravity defines the attractive force between all objects that possess mass. Understanding the law of gravity offers profound insights into the way our universe functions. Newton, upon observing an apple fall from a tree, began to think along the following lines: The apple is accelerated, since its velocity changes from zero as it is hanging on the tree and moves toward the ground. Thus, by Newton's 2nd Law there must be a force that acts on the apple to cause this acceleration. Let's call this force "gravity", and the associated acceleration the "acceleration due to gravity". Then imagine the apple tree is twice as high. Again, we expect the apple to be accelerated toward the ground, so this suggests that this force that we call gravity reaches to the top of the tallest apple tree. <span>Newton knew that the force which caused the apple's acceleration (gravity) must be dependent upon the mass of the apple. And since the force acting to cause the apple's downward acceleration also causes the earth's upward acceleration (Newton's third law), that force must also depend upon the mass of the earth. </span>

What are the sources of carbon atoms for amino acid synthesis.
nika2105 [10]

The body can only synthesize 11 of the 20 amino acids, all other nine needs to be incorporate with food and those are the ones that we call essential amino acids.

Most of the metabolic cycles use carbon coming from glycolysis, the pentose phosphate pathway or the Krebs cycle.
