Answer:

ATP consists of an adenosine molecule

bonded to three phophate groups in a row.

In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP.

This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy.

Which of the following shows all of the tripeptides that can be formed from one molecule each of lysine (Lys), threonine (Thr),

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

LysThrHis, LysHisThr, HisLysThr, HisThrLys, ThrLysHis, ThrHisLys

Explanation:

You easily combine the options for the tripeptide if you made a chart

Also you can calculate the posibilities with the factorial function in the calculatio (x!): 3*2*1 (you can multiplicate the number of amoniacids by the followed numbers until 1) = 6

Function in the cell cycle. Explain why interphase is important before mitosis begins.

Luda [366]

Answer:

During interphase, the cell copies its DNA in preparation for mitosis. Interphase is the 'daily living' or metabolic phase of the cell, in which the cell obtains nutrients and metabolizes them, grows, replicates its DNA, and conducts other "normal" cell functions. This phase was formerly called the resting phase.
