Current Question (ID: 11467)

Question:

The energy which is required for life processes is obtained by

Options:

1. Hydrolysis of Macromolecules
2. Hydrolysis of food
3. Oxidation of Macromolecules
4. Carboxylation of Macromolecules

Solution:

The energy required for life processes is obtained by the oxidation of macromolecules, which are broken down into smaller molecules through a process called catabolism. During catabolism, the bonds between the atoms in the macromolecules are broken, and the released energy is captured by adenosine triphosphate (ATP) molecules, which are used to power various cellular processes. Therefore, the correct option is C, i.e., Oxidation of Macromolecules. Hydrolysis of macromolecules and hydrolysis of food are both processes involved in breaking down large molecules into smaller ones, but they are not the ultimate source of energy. Carboxylation of macromolecules is not a process involved in the production of energy for life processes.
