Starch and ATP store energy in their chemical bonds. This energy is released and supplied to the body as soon as these bonds are broken.

Explanation:

Starch and ATP both are bio-molecules. The atoms in these molecules are joined with each other with the help of chemical bonds. When these bonds are broken energy is produced and supplied to the body. Body uses this energy to perform its daily metabolic activities.

Starch which is a polymer of glucose which is first broken down into a disaccharide named as maltose in our mouth with the help of an enzyme known as salivary amylase. This maltose is then further broken down into glucose in our intestine with the help of pancreatic amylase. This glucose is then absorbed in the intestine from where it enters into our blood stream with the help of which this glucose is then supplied to each tissue/cell of our body through circulation. Within the cells, this glucose is then oxidized to produce ATP and the process is known as cellular respiration. When ATP is broken down into ADP & inorganic phosphorus (Pi) energy is released.

Answer from: Quest

there are mainly three domains in biological classification namely; archaea, bacteria, and eukarya.

archaea includes all the prokaryotic cells which are characterized by their lipid membranes. they have branched hydrocarbon which is attached to glycerol through an ether linkage.

bacteria includes all the prokaryotic cells, the cell membrane of which are made up of the unbranched fatty acid chain. in addition, they are attached to glycerol through an ester bond.

eukarya includes all the eukaryotic cells, that is, the cells contain a nucleus and other membrane-bound cell organelles.

they can be autotrophic as well as heterotrophic, unicellular as well as multicellular

they include kingdoms like protista, plantae, animalia, fungi et cetera.
