Which of these statements best explains the process of energy conversion that takes place in the mitochondria? 1 point a energy is required for carbon dioxide molecules to form six-carbon sugar molecules. b water molecules and radiant energy are necessary for anaerobic respiration to take place. c oxygen molecules release energy in the form of heat during combustion reactions. d the energy in the bonds of glucose molecules is transferred to the phosphate bonds in atp.

The statement below which explains the energy conversations that takes places within the mitochondria of a cell is best explained by ''the energy in the bonds of glucose molecules is transferred to the phosphate ATP''.

Option D

Explanation:

The energy that is required by our body is given to us by the glucose that the human body receives through food molecules. Though the human body receives several sources of carbohydrates, such as sucrose everything needs to be converted to glucose to aid in energy yielding process.

cellular respiration oxidizes food into energy in the form of atps.

glycolysis (6 c hexose) > 2x atps are used > 6c hexose biphosphate > 2 x 3c triphosphate >

2 x 3c pyruvate (2x nadh produced from nad) and (4x atp produced)

pyruvate actively pumped mitochondrial matrix.
