In terms of energy, what is the difference between glucose and ATP? 

Biology
1 answer:
r-ruslan [8.4K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Cellular respiration breaks down glucose into water and carbon dioxide producing 38 net ATP molecules. ATP is the energy containing nucleotide in cells while the energy found in glucose is used to make ATP. The key difference between glucose and ATP is the composition of these two molecules.

The Researches talk about a "Balance" within the Ecosystem that Exists within the
seropon [69]

Answer:

the balance is everything must have a process of living and dying in an ecosystem. such as, an animal killing another animal for prey to eat it, that is a process. in a water ecosystem, fish lay eggs and come out and usually get eaten by a bigger animal, as they grow up, usually by bigger fish itself such as the Grayling.

Which of the following statements correctly describes some aspect of ATP hydrolysis being used to drive the active transport of
saw5 [17]

Answer:

B) This is an example of energy coupling

Explanation:

Energy coupling is a process by which cells carry out thermodynamically unfavorable, endergonic (energy-requiring) reactions to other exergonic (reactions that liberate free energy) reactions.

Reactions which are endergonic do not occur spontaneously as they result in a decrease in entropy and a positive free energy change, ∆G.

Exergonic reactions occur spontaneously as they result in an increase in entropy and have a negative free energy change, ∆G.

For example, the active transport of ions against their concentration gradients in cells is a non-spontaneous endergonic process which is coupled to the hydrolysis of ATP, an exergonic process in other for the reaction to proceed. ATP hydrolysis phosphorylates an amino acid side chain in the transport protein which then drives the forward process of transport of the ion.

Considering the above,

Option A: The hydrolysis of ATP is endergonic, and the active transport is exergonic is false because ATP hydrolysis is exergonic while active transport is endergonic.

Option B: This is an example of energy coupling is true.

Option C: Both ATP hydrolysis and active transport are spontaneous because they result in an increase in entropy of the system is false because only ATP hydrolysis is spontaneous

Option D: Neither ATP hydrolysis nor active transport is spontaneous is false because ATP hydrolysis is spontaneous.

Option E: ATP is acting as a transport protein to facilitate the movement of the ion across the plasma membrane is false because ATP is not a protein, rather it serves to activate the transport protein by phosphorylating it.
