The most abundant energy source for muscle contraction is: A. ATP B. oxygen C. glycogen D. creatine phosphate Many of the molecules found in the body are organic. Make an argument for which three biological molecules you feel are the most import...
What molecules make up the backbone of the RNA molecule? What cell structure contains DNA? Are there single-stranded DNA molecules? What are the 2 things that the sides of the DNA molecules consist of? What are the nucleotides involved in DNA synthesis?
It may consist of atoms of a single chemical element, as with oxygen (O2), or of different elements, as with water (H2O). As components of matter, molecules are common in organic substances (and therefore biochemistry) and are what allow for life-giving elements, like liquid water and bre...
The molecules that are almost universally called "phospholipids" that make up the cell membrane bilayer are more properly called "glycerophospholipids." They consist of a glycerol molecule, which is a three-carbon alcohol, attached to two long fatty acids on one side and a phosphate group on the...
Known as the Great Oxygenation Event, Earth froze over as oxygen accumulated in our atmosphere, nearly driving all life extinct.

from Chapter 2 / Lesson 23 42K Learn about ATP, the adenosine triphosphate molecule the cells use as energy. Discover how mitochondria make ATP by using oxygen to break down glucose molecules into ATP during cellular respiration. Related to this QuestionWhich...
Question: What atomic or hybrid orbitals make up the bond between C and N in hydrogen cyanide, HCN? Types of bonding To form a covalent bond, the first two orbitals have to overlap head-on. This forms a sigma bond. To increase bonding further, p character orbitals ...
Moisture is presence of water in the air. Water is a combination of two molecules ofhydrogenand one molecule of oxygen. This bond is so strong that even after billions of years, it will remain intact. Facts and Importance of Moisture ...
reactions between the non-elemental forms of the two elements do form molecules containing the carbon-hydrogen bond which is found in most, if not all organic compounds--like glucose. Its high reactivity to electronegative elements, including oxygen, results in strong bonds with those elements calle...
