Some scientists claim that there is another reason, an enthalpic reason, that the hydrolysis of ATP is exergonic, besides those listed in the textbook. Which of the following is a possible enthalpic reason that ATP hydrolysis is exergonic?

a. The phosphoanhydride bond is very unreactive.
b. The phosphoanhydride bond interacts poorly with the aqueous environment compared to the products of hydrolysis.
c. The phosphoanhydride bond loses entropy when it hydrolyzes.
d. The phosphoanhydride bond interacts well with the aqueous environment compared to the products of hydrolysis.

1. the passing of is the basis of heredity. 2. our encode the instructions that define our traits. 3. each of us has thousands of genes, which are made of and reside in our chromosomes. 4. in addition to our genes, the we live in also define our traits. 5. humans have two complete sets of chromosomes. 6. when parents conceive a child, each parent contributes set of chromosomes. 7. every child receives of its chromosomes from the mother and half from the father. 8. this transfer takes place at when the father’s sperm joins the mother’s egg. 9. while most cells in our bodies have two sets of chromosomes, or a total of egg and sperm each have chromosomes. 10. when egg and sperm unite they create a single cell called a 11. each parent contributes complete set of chromosomes to their child. 12. since the parents contribute the chromosomes to each new child, every child inherits a unique set of chromosomes. 13. as a result, every baby will have a combination of traits.
