Question

A cell goes through cellular respiration and produces ATP which it then uses to move a molecule across the cell membrane. How does the energy in the original glucose molecule change form between kinetic and potential energy during this process?

-The potential energy in the glucose is stored as potential energy in the ATP and released as kinetic energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

-The potential energy in the glucose is stored as kinetic energy in the ATP and released as potential energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

Answer 1

-The kinetic energy in the glucose is stored as kinetic energy in the ATP and released as potential energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

-The kinetic energy in the glucose is stored as potential energy in the ATP and released as kinetic energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

Answer 2

The answer is:

-The kinetic energy in the glucose is stored as kinetic energy in the ATP and released as potential energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

Always remember that potential energy is energy that can POTENTIALLY be used; kinetic energy is energy that is PUT TO USE. I hope that helps! :)

Thanks!

Answer 4

Any time at all. :)
