A hummingbird is "drinking" nectar containing sugar from a red columbine flower. Arrange the following events to occur in the hummingbird in order from the first to last: (1 ) Glucose sugar is converted to pyruvate. (2 ) Energy from high-energy electrons is released from an electron transport chain. This energy is used to make ATP. (3 ) The hummingbird exhales carbon dioxide and energy is stored

in electron carriers. (4 ) The hummingbird has the ability to beat its wings 40 - 80 times a second. a. 1, 4, 3, 2 b. 2, 1, 3, 4 c. 1, 2, 3, 4 d. 2, 3, 4, 1 e. 1, 3, 2, 4
