Explain: What is the relationship between the carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms from sugar
molecules, formed in or ingested by an organism?
How are those same atoms found in amino acids and other large carbon-based
molecules?
How can larger carbon-based molecules and amino acids be a result of chemical
reactions between sugar molecules and other atoms?
Evidence to include:
The atoms that sugar molecules composed of.
How all organisms take in matter and rearrange the atoms in chemical reaction for
growth and maintenance.
The chemical reactions that take place in cellular respiration between sugar molecules
and other molecules in which energy is released.
The atoms that amino acids and other complex carbon-based molecules are composed
of.
