Which is an example of chemical to mechanical energy conversion that occurs in living organisms?(a) ATP-driven muscle contraction(b) ATP-dependent photon emission in fireflies(c) light-induced electron flow in chloroplasts(d) ATP-driven active transport across a membraneThe question was posed to me in semester exam.My doubt is from Phosphoryl Group Transfers and ATP in portion Principles of Bioenergetics and Glycolysis of Biochemistry

Answer» RIGHT CHOICE is (a) ATP-driven muscle contraction

The BEST I can EXPLAIN: ATP-dependent photon EMISSION in fireflies is an example for chemical to electromagnetic energy conversion.

Light-induced electron flow in chloroplasts is an example for electromagnetic to electrical energy conversion.

ATP-driven active transport across a membrane is an example for chemical to osmotic energy conversion.
