A cell goes through cellular respiration and produces ATP which it then uses to move a molecule across the cell membrane. How does the energy in the original glucose molecule change during this process?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The stored energy in the glucose is used to produce ATP that can be converted to mechanical energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

The energy in the glucose is stored as kinetic energy in the ATP and released as potential energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

The energy in the glucose is stored as mechanical energy in the ATP and released as potential energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

The kinetic energy in the glucose is stored as potential energy in the ATP and released as kinetic energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

Answer:

The correct answer is The energy in the glucose is stored as kinetic energy in the ATP and released as potential energy when the molecule moves across the cell membrane.

Explanation:

Potential energy is required to move a  molecule across the plasma membrane. This potential energy is derived from the hydrolysis of ATP in which(ATP) the energy is stored as kinetic energy.

     ATP hydrolysis releases potential energy to drive the movement of molecule across the plasma membrane.
