1 answer:

6 0

<span>Proper control over the contents of a cell is essential in ensuring that the cell maintains homeostasis and is able to operate within its necessary bounds. And that very important responsibility falls to the cell's plasma membrane, which is the barrier that serves as the interface between the cell and the exterior, including with regards to allowing the passage of solutes across the cell boundary.</span>

How many 02 molecules are required for two glucose molecules to undergo cellular respiration?

jekas [21]

Answer: 12

Explanation: the reaction is: C6H12O6 + 6 H2O + 6 O2 -> 6 CO2 + 12 H2O + 38 ATP + heat

What kind of bond is broken and reform to release energy from food molecules

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Endothermic reactions absorb energy, so the sum of the energy required exceeds the amount that is released. In all types of chemical reactions, bonds are broken and reassembled to form new products.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!

Chemical reactions make and break the chemical bonds between molecules, resulting in new materials as the products of the chemical reaction. ... Breaking chemical bonds absorb energy, while making new bonds releases energy, with the overall chemical reaction being endothermic or exothermic.
