Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
In which way will energy be used after it leaves the mitochondrion during cellular respiration?
A
repairing parts of damaged tissue
B
combining with carbon dioxide
C
building new oxygen molecules
D
starting the second stage of respiration
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In which way will energy be used after it leaves the mitochondrion during cellular respiration? repairing parts of damaged tissue combining with carbon dioxide building new oxygen molecules starting the second stage of respiration’

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitochondria are membrane-bound cell organelles (mitochondrion, singular) that generate most of the chemical energy needed to power the cell’s biochemical reactions. Chemical energy produced by the mitochondria is stored in a small molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Detailed explanation-3: -Answer: Solution: The energy released during respiration is used for carrying out various life processes. Some of the energy liberated during the breakdown of the glucose molecule is in the form of heat, but a large part of it is converted into chemical energy released by these ATP molecules.

Detailed explanation-4: -What is the purpose of cellular respiration? Cellular respiration is used to generate usable ATP energy in order to support many other reactions in the body. ATP is particularly important for energetically unfavorable reactions that would otherwise not occur without an energy input.

Detailed explanation-5: -Most of the ATP produced by aerobic cellular respiration is made by oxidative phosphorylation. The energy released is used to create a chemiosmotic potential by pumping protons across a membrane. This potential is then used to drive ATP synthase and produce ATP from ADP and a phosphate group.
