The statement 'the most usable energy for cells comes from the rapid combustion of glucose' is FALSE (Option 1).

  • Glucose is a simple carbohydrate that provides a rapid energy source to the cells.

  • In animals, glucose is used to produce glycogen, which is a complex carbohydrate that provides a long-term source of energy.

  • All metabolic reactions in a cell depend on the presence of activation energy, which generally is provided by ATP, the energy coin of the cell.

In conclusion, the statement 'the most usable energy for cells comes from the rapid combustion of glucose' is FALSE (Option 1).
