Cellular Energy

Understand how cells derive energy from glucose to produce ATP, essential for life processes like growth, reproduction, and movement. Learn about ATP bonding, energy release, and the role of enzymes in maintaining homeostasis through active transport.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Cellular Energy Glucose ADP ATP

  2. Cellular Energy • Cells get their energy from the breakdown of sugars,fats,lipids,Carbohydrates • Cells need energy to carry out all of life's processes • Reproduction • Growth • Movement • Diffusion

  3. Cellular Energy • The cell must transform the food molecules we eat into a useable form • ATP • This usable energy comes from the bonds between atoms in the ATP molecules

  4. Cellular Energy • ATP • Adenosine Tri-Phosphate • 1 sugar molecule (adenosine) • 3 phosphate groups • ADP • Adenosine Di-Phosphate • 1 sugar molecule (adenosine) • 2 phosphate groups

  5. ATP Bonding

  6. ATP Bonding • The bonds between the phosphate groups of the ATP store energy • When the ATP molecules are broken down the bonds between the Phosphates and the Sugars are broken • The breaking of the bonds releases energy • The ATP becomes ADP and a phosphate

  7. ATP Bonding

  8. ATP to ADP • Monosaccharide + Monosaccharide -> Disaccharide

  9. Energy Uses • Make larger sugar molecules • Sucrose • Condensation/Hydrolysis reactions • Enzymes • Help speed up other reactions • Maintain Homeostasis • Active transport
