ATP is a high energy molecule found in ever cell
The job of ATP is to store and supply the cell with needed energy
ATP has three main parts
- adenine
- Ribose (the backbone)
- Phosphate chain

Reflection
I learned that ATP is the most important molecule in the body with out it the cell will die.The thing that surprised me the most about ATP is when it looses one of the phosphates it turns into ADP. I already knew the more energy you use the more ATP you will need.
Outside of Biology
ATP can be shown in a smart phone. The more battery you have the more energy or power you have to use your phone. This connects back to ATP because the more ATP you have the more energy you have to use.
What processes in the cell need energy from ATP?

ReplyDeleteWhere does ATP occur in the cell?
ReplyDeleteWhat does ADP stand for?
ReplyDeleteWhy is ATP important?
ReplyDeleteHow do you create more ATP?
ReplyDeleteHow is energy released from ATP?
ReplyDeleteNice addition of the quizlet link. Is it possible for ATP to be manufactured in a way for immediate intake, like energy drinks?
ReplyDeleteI like how you had the basic information but also included a quizlet with more information and it is for good practice.
ReplyDeleteATP is found in the mitochondria but it is also produced in the chloroplasts
ReplyDeleteADP stand for adenosine diphosphate
Important because it transports the energy necessary for all cell activity
You can make more ATP by eating carbohydrates
How it works: breaking down the bonds in glucose in the presence of oxygen, energy is produced in order to add a phosphate group to ADP to form ATP
