Cell energy

ATP

Energy in our cells

What molecules is ATP made of?

• Adenine

• Ribose

• 3 phosphate groups

What happens when a phosphate bond breaks off from ATP and what is the equation

Energy is released. ATP—ADP+Phosphate+energy

What happens when a phostphate bond is restored?

Energy is stored.

What is the equation for photosynthesis?

CO2+H20+light/energy=C6H12O6+O2

Monomer

An organic molecule made of one unit.

Polymer

An organic molecule made of many units.

How do monosaccharides differ from disaccharide?

Monosaccharides are single sugar units, while disaccharides are two sugars.

Many animals store excess glucose in their bodies in the form of:

Glycogen

What is chemosynthesis and give an example

Organisms produce energy through a chemical reaction. An example is deep sea creatures that don’t have acess to light.

What is cellular respiration?

Energy is released by breaking down glucose with the use of oxygen.

What is the equation for cellular respiration?

O2+C6H12O6=CO2+H2O

What is the difference between anaerobic respiration and aerobic respiration?

Aerobic respiration using oxygen while anaerobic respiration does not.

Where does anaerobic respiration happen. Aerobic respiration?

Anaerobic respiration happens in the cytoplasm of a cell while aerobic respiration happens in the mitochondria.

How many molecules does anerobic respiration make. And aerobic?

2 ATP molecules and 36 for aerobic.

What are the 2 types of anaerobic respiration?

Lactic acid and alcoholic fermentation

What is fermentation?

Energy is released from food energy producing ATP.

What is lactic acid fermentation? What does it produce make, where does it happen, and what is the process?

Glucose is broken down to create ATP without the presence of oxygen.

Used in food production and muscle metabolism.

Happens during rapid exercise.

Produces lactic acid and ATP

Makes yogurt and cheese

Process: During this fermentation, glucose is converted into lactic acid.

What is alcoholic fermentation? What does it produce make, where does it happen, and what is the process?

Glucose is broken down to create ATP without the presence of oxygen.

Happens in yeast

Produces alcohol and CO2

Makes beer, wine, and bread

Process: During this fermentation, glucose is converted into ethanol and CO2.
