ATP Adenosine Triphosphate– Energy for a cell! (Page: 52) Critical Question: What is the compound used by organisms to drive cellular processes like Photosynthesis & Cellular Respiration?
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) is a chemical compound that organisms use to store and release energy
ATP Is a “charged” battery for a cell Adenosine Triphosphate Stores energy ADP Is an “uncharged” battery for a cell Adenosine Diphosphate releases energy
ATP and ADP are Biomolecules (Nucleic Acid)! Nitrogen Base Phosphate Sugar Nucleotide
ADP ATP
ATP/ADP cycle ENERGY! All of the energy is stored between the 2nd and the 3rd phosphate of ATP
ATP/ADP cycle ENERGY!! To release energy break off the 3rd phosphate ENERGY!! To store energy add a 3rd phosphate
ATP / ADP Energy Cycle phosphates
