ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS: 1. What are some examples of the "work" of a cell? 2. What are some energy conversions that occur in cells? How about in ribosomes and organelles?
~~"chemical work, mechanical work, and transport work."~~
(Figure 7-10).
~~" An example of chemical work is building large molecules such as proteins. ... An example of transport work is pumping solutes such as ions across a cellular membrane."~~
Answer in no.2=
"•~~Several types of energy conversion occur in cells. Respiration is the process by which raw fuel energy is converted to a form that can be used for cellular work. Cellular work is a set of processes that includes routine housekeeping as well as special functions such as mitosis. All cells respire and do work.•~~"
In Ribosomes And organelles=
Two types of membranous organelles that specialize in energy conversion are the chloroplasts and mitochondria. Chloroplasts use solar energy to make carbohydrates by using photosynthesis.
Both the mitocondria and chloroplasts convert the energy from one to other.
