The diagram shows the molecular structure of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) The diagram shows a three-part structure. From left to

right, adenine is shown as two polygons, then ribose is shown as a pentagon, and then 3 phosphate groups are shown by three letter Ps in circles. Which of these events occurs during the normal function of ATP in the cell? A. A chemical bond forms between the adenine unit and the third phosphate group. B. The chemical bond breaks between the adenine and ribose units. C. The chemical bond breaks between the ribose unit and the first phosphate group. D. The chemical bond breaks between the second and third phosphate groups.

Answer:

The correct option is D. <u>The chemical bond breaks between the second and third phosphate groups.</u>

Explanation:

Adenosine phosphate (ATP) can be described as main energy-carrying molecules which are required by each cell to carry out its normal functions.

A molecule of ATP comprises of the nitrogenous base Adenine, pentose sugar ribose and three molecules of phosphate.

The bond between the second and third molecule carries high amounts of energy. When this bond is broken, huge amounts of energy is released which is used by the cells to carry out essential processes.

Eddi Din [679]

Oxygen will diffuse more quickly into cell B because the diffusion gradient there is steeper.  

The concentration gradient depicts the slow change in the concentration of solutes found in a solution between the two regions. A gradient in biological terms arises due to an unequal distribution of ions across the membrane of the cell. Both the process of facilitated and simple diffusion take place when there is a concentration gradient.

To help explain surface tension, use a single water molecule in the template, and draw arrows representing the possible location
kramer

Answer:

The correct representation is attached with the explanation.

Explanation:

In this representation of the surface tension, blue arrows between green water molecules are the possible molecules that can be used as the location for forming hydrogen bonds by a single molecule. Surface tension is the tendency of a liquid surface strectch to neighbouring molecules or ability to shrink in minimum surface area possible. Hydrogen bonds is an intermolecular force or interaction responsible for the surface are of liquide molecules. This bonds is towards every direction where the similar molecule present.
