What is ATP
Adenosine Triphosphate (3 phosphates)
2
New cards
It's the main energy source used by?
Cells.
3
New cards
Made of…
adenine + ribose (sugar) + 3 phosphate groups.
4
New cards
How does ATP works
Breaking the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate = releases energy
5
New cards
This energy powers everything..
your cells do.
6
New cards
used by plants during photosynthesis to make glucose.
Sunlight
7
New cards
broken down during cellular respiration to make ATP.
Glucose
8
New cards
When ATP loses a phosphate
it becomes ADP (Adenosine Diphosphate).
9
New cards
adding a phosphate back to ADP to make ATP again.
Phosphorylation
10
New cards
(energy-storing) reaction.
This is an endergonic
11
New cards
Breaking ATP
= exergonic (energy-releasing) reaction called hydrolysis.
