Answer:

Please find the explanation to this question below

Explanation:

The ATP cycle is the series of reactions involving glycolysis, Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation that produces/synthesizes ATP in living cells. These processes collectively is called CELLULAR RESPIRATION. Glycolysis produces 2ATP molecules, Krebs cycle produces 2ATP while the electron transport chain (oxidative phosphorylation) produces 34ATP molecules.

This cycle of ATP as explained above is an important frequent event in cells because all organisms need energy to carry out their metabolic activities. ATP is the energy-carrying molecule that stores and releases energy for use by the cells, hence, it needs to be produced on a frequent basis.

ATP can be likened to a charged battery ready to release its stored energy. The energy is stored in the phosphate bonds that makes up its structure. When ATP releases its energy, it becomes ADP (Adenosine diphosphate). However, ADP is a reactant in the ATP cycle, which is phosphorylated with an inorganic phosphate (Pi) and catalyzes by ATP synthase to form ATP.

Georgia [21]
The answer is right below.

The bulk of this species’ diet consists of fish in the teleost infraclass, including dragonfish, rattails, anglerfish, and more. They are also known to feed on crustaceans and cephalopods like squid.

These sharks will prey on fish found both on the sea floor and in the water column. Because they are so slow moving, scientists believe these sharks are ambush predators. Their pinkish-red skin actually blends in when in the deep sea.
