When a cell uses chemical energy to perform work, it uses the energy released from a(n) ________ reaction to drive a(n) ________ reaction.

Respuesta :

Answer: EXERGONIC; ENDERGONIC

Explanation:

An Exergonic reaction is one that occurs spontaneously, with the release of high amount of energy usually in form of ATP. a good example of this is the oxidation of glucose (glycolysis) in the Human body.

Whereas an energetic reaction is one that will ONLY occur in the supply of energy. A good example is biosynthethic reaction such as

- formation of glycogen (glycogenesis)

- formation of lipids etc
