Questions and Answers

What is the primary function of metabolic pathways in terms of energy?

  • To capture solar energy or degrade energy-rich nutrients from the environment (correct)
  • To synthesize biomolecules for specialized cellular functions
  • To convert nutrient molecules into the cell's own characteristic molecules
  • To polymerize monomeric precursors into macromolecules

    • What is the outcome of converting nutrient molecules into the cell's own characteristic molecules?

  • Formation of precursors of macromolecules (correct)
  • Synthesis of biomolecules for specialized cellular functions
  • Production of energy-rich molecules
  • Breakdown of macromolecules into monomers

    • What is the result of polymerizing monomeric precursors?

  • Production of biomolecules for specialized cellular functions
  • Formation of energy-rich molecules
  • Formation of macromolecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides (correct)
  • Synthesis of nutrient molecules

    • What is the purpose of synthesizing and degrading biomolecules required for specialized cellular functions?
