Textbook Question

Chapter 23, Problem 8RE

REFLECT AND APPLY Metabolic cycles are rather common (Calvin cycle, citric acid cycle, urea cycle). Why are cycles so useful to organisms?

Definition Definition Set of metabolic processes and reactions that produce energy from organic substances such as glucose. Cellular respiration takes place in the organism’s cells, where the chemical energy from nutrients or molecules of oxygen is converted into adenosine triphosphate (ATP). Cellular respiration that occurs in the presence of oxygen is called aerobic respiration; in the absence of oxygen, it is called anaerobic respiration.
