Why is ATP an important molecule in metabolism? C. IT PROVIDES ENERGY COUPLING BETWEEN EXERGONIC AND ENDERGONIC REACTIONS. 5. Had a pic sorry 6. Why does ice float in liquid water? D. HYDROGEN BONDS STABILIZE AND KEEP THE MOLECULES OF ICE FARTHER APART THAN THE WATER MOLECULES OF LIQUID WATER. 7. A water sample from a hot thermal vent contained a single-celled organism that had a cell wall but lacked a nucleus. What is its most likely classification? D. ARCHAEA 8. Isotopes of the same element have: D. THE SAME NUMBER OF ELECTRONS AND THE SAME ATOMIC NUMBER BUT DIFFERENT ATOMIC MASSES. 9. What is a hypothesis? B.

Living organisms increase in complexity as they grow, resulting in decrease in the entropy of an organism. How does this relate to the second law of thermodynamics? B. AS A CONSEQUENCE OF GROWING, ORGANISMS CREATE MORE DISORDER IN THEIR ENVIRONMENT THAN THE DECREASE IN ENTROPY ASSOCIATED WITH THEIR GROWTH. 16.
