1aWhat class of macromolecule consumes the most energy for b
1a.What class of macromolecule consumes the most energy for biosynthesis?
RNA
DNA
Protein
Phospholipid
1b.Precursor metabolites
result from fueling reactions (catabolism)
comprise small ionic species such as Mg2+ and Cl–
are necessary for biosynthesis (anabolism)
both (A) AND (C)
1c. Heterotrophic bacteria
couple energy harvesting with carbon metabolism
utilize an independent source of energy harvesting from carbon metabolism
can perform carbon dioxide (CO2) fixation
rely on sunlight as a primary energy source
Solution
1c. heterotrophic bacteria uses organic carbon as food so your answer is option 3) utilize an indpendent source of energy harvesting from carbon metabolism
1b. precursors are small molecules resulting from catabolic reaction and those are essential to synthesis organic molecules in cell
