Question

The chemical energy that is stored in bonds of carbohydrates finally will be converted into $\_\_\_\_$ by oxidation within a cell.\

Professor PC Thomas Classes · Answer

(b) : During oxidation within a cell, all the energy contained in respiratory substrates is not released free into the cell, or in a single step. It is released in a series of slow step-wise reactions controlled by enzymes, and it is trapped as chemical energy in the form of ATP which is known as energy currency of cell.
