CELL RESPIRATION

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
cell respiration is the ____ release of energy from organic substances to produce ATP
A
uncontrolled
B
forced
C
controlled
D
fast
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Cell respiration is the controlled release of energy from organic compounds to produce ATP. ATP from cell respiration is immediately available as a source of energy in the cell. Anaerobic cell respiration gives a small yield of ATP from glucose.

Detailed explanation-2: -Cellular respiration is a series of chemical reactions that break down glucose to produce ATP, which may be used as energy to power many reactions throughout the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Mitochondrial ATP synthesis (oxidative phosphorylation) is mainly regulated by the membrane potential (respiratory control) and protein synthesis (transcriptional control).

Detailed explanation-4: -Cells release the energy in those organic molecules by breaking them down. Through cellular respiration and fermentation, those bonds are broken releasing the potential energy of organic molecules into kinetic energy that cells use to do work.

Detailed explanation-5: -Cellular respiration is the aerobic process by which living cells break down glucose molecules, release energy, and form molecules of ATP . Generally speaking, this three-stage process involves glucose and oxygen reacting to form carbon dioxide and water.
