Which is an example of chemical to osmotic 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 by my college professor while I was bunking the class.I would like to ask this question from Phosphoryl Group Transfers and ATP topic in section Principles of Bioenergetics and Glycolysis of Biochemistry

Answer»

The correct option is (d) ATP-driven ACTIVE transport across a membrane

The best explanation: ATP-driven muscle contraction is an EXAMPLE for chemical to mechanical energy CONVERSION.

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.
