Approximately 90 hours of flight training instruction, 22 weeks of training. Purpose: teach students basic flying skills. Focus: Contact, Instruments, Formation (2-ship), Navigation. At the end of this 6-month phase, students pick which Advanced Track they wish to fly.
Cells do not use the energy from oxidation reactions as soon as it is released. Instead, they convert it into small, energy-rich molecules such as ATP and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), which can be used throughout the cell to power metabolism and construct new cellular components.
Mitochondria - the cell's 'power plants' - generate most of the cell's supply of the energy-carrying molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP). MItochondria are also involved in a range of other processes: signalling, cellular differentiation, cell death, control of the cell cycle, and cell growth.
