Complete question:

A. With an input of energy, ADP rearranges to become ATP.

B. Without any energy change, ADP rearranges to become ATP.

C. With an input of energy, ADP combines with a phosphate group to become ATP.

D. With a release of energy, ADP combines with a phosphate group to become ATP.

Explanation:

C. With an input of energy, ADP combines with a phosphate group to become ATP.

In respiration, energy is released when a phosphate group is removed from ATP; ATP is formed from the phosphorylation of ADP with an inorganic phosphate, Pi, which forms an unstable, high energy phosphate bond.

ADP + inorganic phosphate (Pi) + energy → ATP

Further Explanation:

In all eukaryotic cells mitochondria are small cellular organelles bound by membranes, these make most of the chemical energy required for powering the biochemical reactions within the cell. This chemical energy is stored within the molecule ATP which is produced. Respiration in the mitochondria utilizes oxygen for the production of ATP in the Krebs’ or Citric acid cycle via the oxidization of pyruvate through the process of glycolysis in the cytoplasm).

This forms a gradient where there is a differential in the number of protons on either side of the membrane the protons flow or re-enter the matrix through the enzyme ATP synthase, which makes the energy storage molecules of ATP from the reduction of ADP. At the end of the electron transport, three molecules of oxygen accept electrons and protons to form molecules of water- a process called chemiosmosis.

_____ is the best example of a sensitive period.

Katarina [22]

The best example that illustrates a sensitive period is letter b, where the child tries to learn in speaking a second language because this is considered to be a sensitive period in which is the period for a development of new opportunities that a child could learn in which learning to speak a second language is considered to be a sensitive period.

Answer:

D. The system provided an organized way to classify living things and it has been able to grow and develop. There is a place to enter new organisms as they are discovered or new evidence occurs

Explanation:

Carolus Linnaeus is a Swedish Botanist is universally referred to as the FATHER OF TAXONOMY because of his contribution to the development of a system of naming and classifying species, which is still globally recognized today. Linnaeus proposed the binomial nomenclature system which uses two of the hierarchical classification to name organisms i.e. genus and species. For example, humans are Homo sapiens; Homo (generic name), Sapien (specific name).

Modern scientists later modified Linnaeus classification by adding new ranks in order to accommodate new species and removing incorrectly classified organisms but Linnaeus classification remains the foundation. One important modification was the inclusion of a new taxon called DOMAIN.

  3. Compare the amount of energy that can be stored in ATP and glucose. How does the cell use each of these molecules to store

bogdanovich [222]

3. Cells use glucose to store large amounts of energy for long period of time.
In contrast, ATP is used to store smaller amounts of energy that will be used in the next few seconds.
A glucose molecule can store more than 90 times the energy of a ATP molecules.

4. The fact that the potted plant is in air tight jar affect the process of photosynthesis. The plant is airtight jar which means that the plant is not able to breath and run out of CO2 to produce sugars. So the plant wouldn't be able to complete photosynthesis.
